SNL star who campaigned for Mamdani called out for mocking candidate's critics on show

A pro-Israel X account called "The Persian Jewess" shared a clip of Sherman on "SNL" this past weekend, where she portrayed a loudmouthed woman, "Rhonda LaCenzo," who fears Mamdani and makes up exaggerated claims about him. The account paired the video with another post from June showing the comedian campaigning alongside him. 

The first clip, taken from "SNL's" latest "Weekend Update" segment, showed Sherman portraying the woman as a manic Long Island resident who feared the city could be governed by Mamdani, whom she called a "hipster jihadist."

Sherman's character also admitted to "Weekend Update" host Michael Che that she is Islamophobic, and later confessed to having sexual fantasies about the Democratic candidate.

"Well, I'll tell you what is true, Che - Mamdani is an ISIS-trained millennial nepo baby from Uganda. I mean, Uganda be kidding me," her character says.

"Election Day is tomorrow. Please go vote. I really want you to be the mayor, because it's too frickin' expensive to live here. What are you going to do about that?" she asked the candidate.

"It's the most expensive city in the United States - and that's why, with my real name of Zohran Mamdani, I'm running to be the mayor: to freeze rent for more than two million tenants, make the slowest buses in the country fast and free, deliver universal childcare and send Andrew Cuomo back to the suburbs." 

"That guy is a creep and a pervert and he resigned in disgrace," Sherman added about Cuomo.

Persian Jewess commented on the campaign video, stating, "Sarah Sherman, who starred in the controversial SNL pro-Mamdani sketch, has been openly campaigning for him for months."

NBC did not immediately reply to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
