The story’s plotline is a satire of Donald Trump and Trump University.
The personal financial guru Suze Orman, the American astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson and the creative writing instructor Robert McKee will teach at Mr. Burns’ new school.
Al Jean says to TVLine: “We have a great episode where Burns goes to Yale and discovers, much to his horror, how politically correct it is, so he starts his own college, Burns University, which is similar to another billionaire’s university you might have heard of lately.”
Al Jean also mentions Trump is aware of his Simpsonised version: “There’s a photo of him signing a poster which was [made from] the first spot we did on him a year ago, which was not so flattering, but he’s autographing it for somebody. I think his problem is that he doesn’t like criticism, but of course, he’s opened himself up for more than any human will ever get in all of history.”
Stay tuned for more!
