Watch Ted Cruz Make a Painfully Obvious Larry David Joke in Debate with Bernie Sanders

Watch Ted Cruz Make a Painfully Obvious Larry David Joke in Debate with Bernie Sanders (Mediaite)

You may remember during last year’s Democratic primary, comedian Larry David delivered a spot-on impersonation of Sen. Bernie Sanders(I-VT) on Saturday Night Live. Since then, we’ve actually discovered that the two men are distant relatives. And, recently, HBO brought back David’s hit show Curb Your Enthusiasm for its ninth season after a six-year hiatus.

During tonight’s CNN debate between Sanders and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) over the GOP’s tax proposal, Cruz took the opportunity during a somewhat playful moment between the two to invoke the comedian.
