"Bernie Sanders overshadows GOP debate with scintillating cameo performance as a Jewish socialist immigrant in Titanic-themed skit on SNL alongside Larry David"

...After the ship begins to sink, the crew shout for everyone to get into the lifeboats starting with the women and children first - a statement which riles David's rich-guy character.

Berating the ship's captain, he says: 'Really? Shouldn't it be just whoever's closest?'

David then objects to a woman being brought on to the life raft, asking whether or not she has been through the menopause, which offends her.

David's character then adds: 'That answers my question. Sharks are going to be following us for miles, if you catch me drift.'

He also accuses a child of being a midget, and when the other crews members become offended at his use of the word, he shoots back: 'I can say it, it's olden times.'

When it comes to handing out the life vests, again David is upset by the suggestion that women and children should get them before him.

He says: 'Okay. I hate to pull this, but my father is rich. I come from a wealthy family. Technically, my life is worth all of yours put together.'

Right on queue, Bernie Sanders appears dressed in period costume and a flat cap to shout David down.

Overshadow? Really? How many “undecided” voters watched SNL this week? Does the show still HAVE viewers?

“overshadowed” in the sense that a lot of younger voters are deciding whether to go with the ‘pub or dem primary. Sanders might have them saying it’s imperative to keep the nomination from the crone.

The Daily Mail UK awkwardly tries to sell the Marxist US candidate.

Last time they had ratings over 1% was when Trump showed up.
