Barack Obama and Joe Biden get the 'Shawshank' ending they deserve
Watch Next

There's been much speculation about what Barack Obama and Joe Biden will do after leaving office next week.

Obama, for one, has stated that he plans to stay active in politics during Trump's presidency. Biden has reportedly expressed a desire to stay involved in the search for a cancer cure. While neither has stated any plans to move to Zihuatanejo, Mexico and fix up an old boat together with money stolen from a crooked prison warden, this video somehow still feels cathartic and possible.

Get busy living, Joe and Barack.
