Presidential candidate Donald Trump hosted Saturday Night Live last weekend amid controversy and calls from petitioners to drop the real estate mogul as host.
Trump was joined by Darrell Hammond and Taran Killam, both performing their Trump impersonations."They don't have my talent, my money or especially my good looks," Trump said.
During the monologue, Larry David stood up in the audience and shouted, "You're a racist!" at Trump. (It was scripted.)
David made an appearance on the show playing Bernie Sanders in the show's opening. When Trump asked David what he was doing he replied, "I heard if I yelled that, they'd give me five thousand dollars."
#LarryDavid wins the $5,000 "bounty" from https://t.co/PcIfWXCmnT for calling Trump a Racist on #SNL. Joke or not, it was true. Go Larry!

The reference was to an offer made by the Latino group Deport Racism who offered $5,000 to any audience member who heckled Trump during the show.
Writes the Hollywood Reporter, "After the segment aired, the group tweeted that it would indeed give the $5,000 reward to David."
