Summary
Dan Greaney, the Simpsons writer behind “King-Size Homer,” is running for president as a progressive Republican, channeling Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt while proposing bold policies like expanding the Supreme Court to 13 justices, universal healthcare, and a Green New Deal. He’s vowed to ditch corporate PAC money, even joking it’s not flooding his campaign, and openly targets Citizens United, a rogue Supreme Court, and billionaire influence as threats to democracy. With a self-deprecating “cartoon dad” vibe and a cheeky Darth Vader invite, Greaney leans into his “prophet” persona, aiming to unite Republicans disillusioned by extremism with empathy and shared values — all while his artist campaign director sees the emotional power in his unconventional message.
