After The Simpsons accurately predicted Donald Trump's presidential election, Armando Iannucci doesn't want that smoke anymore.
Kamala Harris was angered by a satirical video comparing her to the 'Veep' character
The creator of Veep wanted to remind fans through X that his Emmy Award-winning HBO series (2012-2019) was purely fictional, despite the similarities to President Joe Biden's announcement that he will withdraw from the 2024 presidential election and his endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris.
“Let’s remind ourselves that #Veep already wrote a fictional version of this script.. Kamala *inherits* the real presidency. And then she runs. The Electoral College is tied. The House votes are tied. Which means the Senate has to choose the tie-breaking nominee. And that ends with… JD Vance as POTUS (NB this is DRAMA…)” one fan wrote.
Iannucci quoted the message and added: “But remember, we made all that up.”
