Larry David, co-creator of “Seinfeld” and star of HBO’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” impersonated Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) during the Oct. 17 episode of “Saturday Night Live.”
David appeared on the late-night comedy show and participated in a sketch about the Democratic debate.
“I don’t have a super PAC, I don’t even have a backpack,” David said.
Alec Baldwin also appeared guest starred on the show as Democratic hopeful Jim Webb.
Watch the “Saturday Night Live” cold opening:
Larry David nailed it. Didn’t see Baldwin do Webb
Stephen Colbert has the voice though when he described Hillary Clinton as “being behind the old man at a delicatessen trying to take back a salami.”
“I was told this was a lean salami. This is not lean!”
Sorry, Anderson may be gay but that doesn’t mean he’s David Sedaris. His voice is about an octave lower and he’s completely different than this guy other than the silver hair.
Larry David was of course great and reminds us that yes, Bernie is actually an old Jew from Brooklyn. Larry’s take is also just like some other NY Jewish comedian…can’t think of who. (?)
That was actually a pretty accurate summation of the debate.
That pretty much sums up the major weakness of the whole Sanders movement. Yes, Bernie is articulating what so many progressives have been wanting to hear for years but no, he’ll never be President. Why? The American people will never elect an old Jewish Grandpa as President of the United States. It doesn’t matter that he right about most of what he says. He’d be destroyed in the general election because the caricatures used to mock him would be too easy and negative ads would be filled with them.
