Move Over, Larry David! Jimmy Fallon Does Dead-On Bernie Sanders NH Victory Speech

Former Curb Your Enthusiasm star Larry David has pretty much cornered the market on uncanny impersonations of Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), but he may face some stiff competition now from Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon. On Wednesday night’s episode, Fallon did a reenactment of Sanders’ New Hampshire primary victory speech so realistic, I’m not sure Jane Sanders would have known the difference.

The bit hit all of the standard Sanders quirks, plus some hilarious observations about New Hampshire, and a somewhat uncomfortable reference to an upcoming visit to a certain seafood restaurant. Watch the clip above, from The Tonight Show.
