[Jimmy Kimmel](http://time.com/4543374/president-obama-mean-tweets-jimmy-kimmel/) flashed a wry smile at [Donald Trump’s victory](http://time.com/4564861/donald-trump-jimmy-fallon-saturday-night-live/?xid=newsletter-brief) by looking to the future on Wednesday night’s _Jimmy Kimmel Live!_ The show presented an _Animal House_ spoof featuring all the famous faces of the recent campaign in the style of National Lampoon’s classic fraternity movie.

The sketch speeds through the major players at their silliest, and declares a grim future for them each of them, with the exception of President-elect Donald Trump. In Kimmel’s imagined future, there’s a path for everyone from Bernie Sanders, who can always be a Walmart greeter to Rudy Giuliani, who can play Uncle Leo in Broadway’s _Seinfeld_ adaptation. Set to the tune of Otis Day & The Knights’ “Shout,” we learn that Trump supporter Scott Baio will have the honor of starring in _Sharknado 5: Sharks in Charge_ and “still undecided” voter Ken Bone will cover L. L. Bean’s holiday catalog as its festive new face. Billy Bush’s future was less high-profile: mannequin at Nordstrom Rack.

Watch the sketch below.
