Calls Donald Trump emotionally immature, appeals to the Bernie people to support Hillary
Actress Sarah Silverman, addressing the Democratic National Convention with Comedian/US Sen. Al Franken:
Hi, I'm Al Franken, and I'm Sarah Silverman, and this past year I've been feeling the Bern! Relax, I put some cream on it.
