Alec Baldwin wasn’t the only special guest riffing on politics during Saturday Night Live‘s season premiere. Larry David returned to reprise his role as Bernie Sanders for a political edition of Family Feud.

Sanders joined the likes of Bill Clinton, Sarah Silverman, and Lin-Manuel Miranda against Kellyanne Conway, Ivanka Trump and her creepy siblings, Chris Christie, and Vladimir Putin.

In an election more suited for a variety show than a pundit-filled one, the Family Feud sketch was filled to the overflowing with campaign asides and political jokes. It’s a good thing SNL didn’t decided to pass like David’s Sanders did after getting his first Family Feud question right.
