"Reality is starting to peek through the windows at the White House," Jimmy Kimmel said on Thursday's Kimmel Live. President Trump "might be going down with the ship, but many of the rats are putting their little bathing suits on amid increasing skepticism that their boss will be able to pull another rabbit out of his MAGA hat. One reason that Trump's advisers are so worried he might not be able to win is because he lost."
"The big orange guy is said to be feeling blue," Kimmel said. "POTUS is reportedly dejected and fuming, and soon he's gonna understand what it feels like to be evicted from your home in the middle of a pandemic." He did come up with an off-ramp for Trump, though — "Let's make him the first president of the last frontier: Alaska. It's big, it's white, it's melting down, and it has lots of crabs, just like Donald Trump!" — and imagined a sitcom where Trump and Biden both occupy the White House, like Felix and Oscar.
