Jost was a SNL comedian imitating a former college dormmate.
Buttigieg and Jost have known each other for almost two decades. The two not only both graduated from Harvard University in 2004, but they both lived in the same dorm Leverett House during their time at the Ivy League institution and both graduated with honors in History & Literature. The two were not close at Harvard, then-friends and advisers told CNN, but the 2020 campaign offers them an unexpected reunion.
