For the last time this season, Saturday Night Live brought Hilary Clinton and Bernie Sanders together on the small screen.
In the opening skit of the show, Clinton, played by Kate McKinnon, ready to depart from a local California bar as it closes up finds a straggling Sanders, played by Larry David, unwilling to leave.
“No freaking way” yells Sanders when told by the bartender that he has to leave. “I’m not going anywhere. I can stay here as long as I want.”
In the SNL skit, the two democratic rivals share a drink together before leaving trading jabs, reminiscent of their situation in the Democratic primaries.
Sanders orders a beer that’s “a new brand that people are flocking to, something refreshing, revolutionary, something that draws Yuge crowds” and Clinton opts for a brand “no one likes but gets the job done.”
Both candidates lambaste the Democratic primary process they endured as they call the system “rigged” before giving cheers to Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
As the night wraps up, Clinton and Sanders have one last dance before leaving with Sanders declaring “I’ll lead,” which Clinton replies “never.”
They dance through the SNL studio before Clinton spins Sanders into an elevator and promptly presses the button to close the doors.
