(JTA) — “Saturday Night Live” satirized Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign by having her turn into her Democratic rival, Sen. Bernie Sanders, and depicting the candidate as claiming she is \u201cthe biggest outsider Jew in the race.\u201d<\/p>\n
The parody ad broadcast Saturday on NBC took aim at two of Clinton\u2019s perceived weaknesses: A record of what her critics say is one of shifting positions, and her losing younger voters to Sanders, I-Vt., who is mounting a surprisingly strong challenge to become the Democratic presidential nominee.<\/p>\n
In the satirical ad, Kate McKinnon, the troupe member who impersonates Clinton, begins to pronounce words like “billionaire” in Sanders’ New York baritone, changes into a baggy suit, talks about her boyhood in Brooklyn and finally says: \u201cThank you millennials for lending your support to the biggest outsider Jew in the race.\u201d<\/p>\n
Also featured on the show was an interview with Larry David, the comic who has played Sanders in “SNL” guest appearances this season.<\/p>\n
The sketch poked fun at Sanders\u2019 failure to draw minority support.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy message is resonating with a very diverse group of white people, and I\u2019ve got supporters of all ages, 18-year-olds and 19-year-olds,\u201d David said as Sanders.<\/p>\n
Asked why blacks aren\u2019t voting for him, he responded: \u201cProbably because I look like someone who at some point told them, \u2018Get out of my store.'”<\/p>\n
David as Sanders also explained why he hasn\u2019t been campaigning in Florida, one of five states running primaries on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u201cCan you blame me? Who wants to spend time in Florida?\u201d he asked. \u201cThe only reason you go to Florida is if your sister calls and says, \u2018Mom\u2019s dead, you got to go to Florida.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
