I believe you mean cromulent, not prescient.

President Trump greeting the world champion Chicago Cubs in the Rose Garden.

Most would have said the sun had a better chance of exploding that this actually happening.

I especially like the one about predicting the Nobel Prize winner by showing a grid with 20 potential honorees.  smh

Hell, give me a few hours on Google, and I'll give you a list of 10 people, at least one of which who will win a Nobel Prize in the next 5-10 years.  Better yet, I'll give you a list of 5 football teams, one of which will win the Super Bowl in the next 5-10 years.  And then you can call me Professor Pigskin from now on.

No, Trump didn't get elected because the Simpsons predicted it, but the fact that someone in the UK can take one prediction (out of 600+ episodes), turn it into a water-downed list of 11 "predictions," and get it published on a US (national) website is strongly correlated with why Trump was elected.
