Back in 2008 during the primaries when Hillary Clinton went head to head with Barack Obama for the Democratic nomination, the Clinton campaign released the 3am attack ad all about a phone ringing in the White House. However now the Simpsons want to pose that same questions again in the hilarious sketch featuring both Clinton and Trump.
