Larry David, Who Plays Bernie Sanders On 'SNL,' Says It's Time For The Senator To Drop Out

Larry David has a political opinion that could hurt his job prospects — it’s time for Bernie Sanders to drop out of the Democratic primary.

The comedian, who regularly plays Sanders in Saturday Night Live skits, said this week that it’s time for the Vermont senator to close up shop and drop out of the race for the Democratic Party’s nomination. Sanders has remained in the race despite what political experts see as an insurmountable deficit against former Vice President Joe Biden, and is now facing growing calls to drop out.

David has echoed others who suggest that it’s time for Bernie to drop out so the party can come together around Biden.

“I feel he should drop out,” David told the New York Times. “Because he’s too far behind. He can’t get the nomination. And I think, you know, it’s no time to fool around here. Everybody’s got to support Biden.”

Fast forward to 3:40 on the youtube below.
He pretty much endorsed Bernie at the time. But, that was early January.
