Democratic U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton put herself at the mercy of comedian Zach Galifianakis in the latest episode of his show “Between Two Ferns”, which was aired on Thursday.

President Obama famously appeared on “Between Two Ferns” in 2014. None of Galifianakis’ questions were cleared with Clinton or her campaign ahead of time. Like: “What happens if you become pregnant?”
Galifianakis at one point claimed that she’d told him off air that she is going to take Americans’ guns away. Galifianakis asks. “Are we gonna be stuck with Tim Kaine for 9 months?” “You need to get out more”, she responded.
Among Galifianakis’ questions was whether she ever watched Donald Trump and thought, “I should be more racist”. Clinton just shakes her head and laughs.
Clinton’s interview with Galifianakisis on his amusing or Die website show is part of her campaign’s effort to show a funnier, softer of the former secretary of state.
Then, Galifianakis proposed a government where Trump won the presidency and Kid Rock served as secretary of state.
“I really regret doing this”, Clinton said – but she brightened when asked to talk about Trump.
“I assume he will wear that red power tie”, Clinton says.
“Or maybe like a white power tie”, Galifianakis responds.
“How does this work”, “The Hangover” star said, moving onto the next question.
For the record, Clinton said she is not down with TPP.
When Galifianakis wonders whether that means Clinton will “lead the civil war”, Clinton says she will not “take up arms” because that would be “extreme”.

She replied she’d stay in the USA to try to prevent Trump from destroying the country – but that she wouldn’t take up arms against him. Did you think Hillary Clinton was a good sport during the interview?
