Matt Groening joked during a panel at San Diego Comic-Con about one way children could "liberate their Republican parents."
Matt Groening, creator of “The Simpsons,” mocked President Donald Trump’s followers on Saturday as he played with fan theories that the long-running animated series has a knack for predicting the future.

“America will return the Statue of Liberty to France, and North America remembers what the word Liberty means.”
