If you’ve never visited Funny Or Die to watch “Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis”, well, I don’t really know what you’re doing with your life.
“Are you excited to be the first girl president?”
“What happens if you become pregnant? Are we gonna be stuck with Tim Kaine for 9 months?”
In a few days Hillary Clinton is going to have to face off with Donald Trump in the first of the presidential debates. “I think it’s part of the asshole”.
Clinton, who has criticized Trump for his racially-tinged comments on the campaign trail, responded: “That’s even more appropriate”.
Aukerman also revealed that the episode was taped on September 9, the day Clinton was diagnosed with pneumonia, though the production team had no idea she was ill.
The clip begins with Galifianakis attempting to scare the former Secretary of State in a Halloween mask before the Secret Service wrestle him to the ground.
Why would you interrupt me with an ad for my opponent, Clinton asked.
She said “no” when asked if she would be up to leading “a civil war”, however. “I don’t think he has thick enough skin”, Aukerman told Politico. She would not, however, take up arms against the president.
At the end of the interview, Galifianakis said he’d like to stay in touch with Clinton.
“Well, this has been a lot of fun Mrs. Clinton”, Clinton says.

Ending the interview, Galifianakis referenced her use of a private email server, asking, “What’s the best way to reach you?”
