**SNL Mocks Trump with 'Hot, Jacked' Impersonation Post-Election**

In their first episode following the election, Saturday Night Live delivered a satirical tribute to Donald Trump's victory, unveiling a comically exaggerated version of the former president—dubbed “hot, jacked Trump.” The episode began with the cast appearing solemn, hands clasped, seemingly ready to address the news of Trump's win. However, they quickly pivoted to a message aimed directly at the president-elect to declare their unwavering support.

Playing into Trump’s narrative of widespread election fraud, the cast members humorously insisted that they had always backed him. In a tongue-in-cheek fashion, they expressed disappointment over the lack of a second Capitol riot and pointed fingers at the "lamestream media" and cast member Michael Che for misinterpreting Trump’s statements. The satire intensified when Heidi Gardner quipped she voted “50 times in Pennsylvania” for Trump, while Ego Nwodim claimed to be among the eight percent of Black women who supposedly supported him, despite 92 percent voting otherwise.

The highlight of the skit came with the introduction of "hot, jacked Trump," portrayed by James Austin Johnson. Johnson entered flexing his muscular arms with a red tie wrapped around his forehead, confidently declaring, “They finally got the body right.” In perfect Trump fashion, he promised a more flattering portrayal going forward, touting Trump as a future incredible president and even king.

The segment took an additional twist with mentions of Trump's supposed confidant, Elon Musk. Kenan Thompson humorously suggested that if Earth falls apart, Musk would lead everyone to Mars. Dana Carvey joined in, mimicking Musk’s fervor from Trump’s second Butler rally, wearing a black MAGA cap and speaking in a disjointed voice to assert, “I run the country now.”

As the sketch approached its climax, the cast turned their attention to young male voters, acknowledging their role in Trump's and Musk’s success while parodying lines from the Village People's “YMCA,” a rally anthem for Trump. Hernández, Bowen Yang, and Thompson each delivered lines encouraging young men to rise up and embrace a new era before the entire cast broke into a lively rendition of the iconic song.
