NEW YORK – November 8, 2015 (Gephardt Daily) — The Hollywood Reporter is reporting comedian Larry David called Donald Trump a ‘racist’ during Trump’s opening monologue for “Saturday Night Live.”
The Hollywood Reporter went on to say, the presidential candidate hosted “Saturday Night Live” this weekend, where he was joined during his monologue by versions of himself, as played by the show’s Taran Killam and Darrell Hammond.
“They don’t have my talent, my money or especially my good looks,” Trump said about his doppelgängers.
During the opening segment, the real-life Larry David shouted “You’re a racist” at Trump.
When Trump asked what he was doing, David — who appeared in the episode’s cold open as Bernie Sanders — replied, “I heard if I yelled that, they’d give me five thousand dollars.”
This is a reference to Latino group ‘Deport Racism’ having offered $5,000 to any audience members who heckled Trump. After the segment aired, the group tweeted that it would indeed give the $5,000 reward to David.
Numerous advocacy groups had protested NBC’s selection of Trump as host, given his previous comments about immigrants.
