Feel free to reframe it and post it elsewhere or even here.

Lots of clever, low key, jibes in there. Lots of quote worthy jokes.

"Is there another Trump?" was spot on and his guest correspondent posing as a worker for HRC was both funny and very well received by the audience. It sounded like a youthful crowd that digs Sanders.

He didn't need heavy handed humor in order to address the activists, or in noting the demographics of the audience. It was what it was and he found some humor.

I had not seen a clip before this one and the image I had of the whole thing based on DU discussion was TOTALLY different!

But that's in the past and happily we've moved past debating that.
