VIDEO: SNL hilariously roasts Bernie Sanders over his penchant for communist dictators

Sen. Bernie Sanders had a brutal week in the media last week after his countless statements praising communism and communists, such as Cuba's late dictator Fidel Castro, were unearthed.

Over the weekend, "Saturday Night Live" hit Sanders with a hard left-jab over his apparent penchant for communist dictators.

During the end of show's cold open — the basis of which was to mock the Trump administration's response to the coronavirus as well as the 2020 Democratic candidates — actor Larry David, who spoofs Sanders, objected to using hand sanitizer as protection from the coronavirus.

"No Purell! I've got a bottle of that junk, and on the label, it says it kills 99.99% of germs. What happens to the top .01%?! Why are we protecting them?" David, as Sanders, said. "I say enough with the potions!"

"Just use good ole' fashioned bar soap and scalding hot water," he continued. "Now, I might get in trouble for saying this, but you know who's great at washing his hands? Joseph Stalin! Just sayin' just sayin'..."
