Clinton Vs. Galifianakis On ‘Between Two Ferns’: Clinton’s Deadpan Wins The Day

Before Clinton’s intentionally awkward interview with Galifianakis commenced, the comedian attempted to scare her, creeping up to the set with a grim reaper mask on.

Hillary Clinton more than held her own during an appearance on actor and comedian Zach Galifianakis’ spoof talk show Between Two Ferns, perfecting a deadpan comeback to his offensive questions. President Obama visited the show in 2014 and was asked what it was like to be the last black president and asked Brad Pitt was it hard to maintain a suntan because he lives in his wife’s shadow.

During the five-minute exchange, Clinton and Galifianakis riffed about what Trump should wear to the first debate. Like himself? Weak?” or “What if you become pregnant? Speaking of Hillary’s contingency plan in case of the election loss, he made it a point to ask her,”When he’s (Donald Trump) elected president, and Kid Rock is secretary of state, are you going to move to Canada?”

Rather than taking the bait of these silly questions; rather than exuding excitement or desperately laughing the jokes off, the presidential candidate went full-Hillary and gave curt, proper answers to the questions.

“I’d be afraid to eat them if I were you”, she says. She also bluntly stated that she was “not down with TPP” i.e. the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement.

Galifianakis: Do you wonder what your opponent might be wearing?

When Galifianakis asked if once Trump is elected President, and Kid Rock becomes Secretary of State, would she move to Canada or one of the Arctics, Hillary’s answer was a victor. Then in what might be one of the funniest captions that could introduce the (possible) future leader of one of the most powerful countries in the world, the words “had pneumonia” was written under Clinton’s name.

Or, may be stay in the States and head the Civil War!

She replies, smiling: “I think that would be a good look on you”. “I would try to prevent him destroying the United States”.

The cherry on the top of this hilarious interview was when Galifianakis told Hillary that, “We should stay in touch”.

We don’t think Hillary will be sending him an email anytime soon.
