When parallels were spotted between Larry David and Bernie Sanders’ appearance and demeanour and people mused that the pair must be related, no-one thought to employ Occam’s razor: they actually are.
“I understand Larry David is hosting SNL this weekend – he does a pretty good imitation of you – do you do a Larry David imitation?”
“This is the scoop,” Bernie replied, “I am Larry David.”
The Seinfeld creator does a notoriously great Sanders impression, one that the politician was asked about last year.
