Comedian Zach Galifianakis asked Hillary Clinton a series of awkward and inappropriate questions in a “Between Two Ferns” video released Thursday.
Among other things, Galifianakis suggested that Clinton, a former secretary of state, had fetched coffee for President Obama.
“As secretary, how many words per minute could you type? And how does President Obama like his coffee? Like himself, weak?” he asked on his show, which is meant to mock celebrity interviews and is published by the comedy website Funny or Die.
He quickly followed up with: “What happens if you become pregnant? Are we going to be stuck with Tim Kaine for nine months? How does this work?”
Among other things, Galifianakis made separate references to Donald Trump’s bowels and the “a**hole” of a cow, ran a Trump TV ad in the middle of the show, asked Clinton to crack a joke about the rap group Naughty by Nature and claimed that the Democratic nominee said before the interview that she “wanted to take everyone’s guns.”
“I’d love to meet the person who makes your pantsuits,” the comedian said at another point. After Clinton expressed surprise, he added: “Yeah, because for Halloween, I wanted to go as a librarian from outer space.”

She sure looked PO’d to say the least.....She always does. It’s her nature.
That is the exact moment I took from this interview. He zinged her with the “when you were at Trump’s wedding” and she looked extremely shocked/uncomfortable with the truth of the matter.
I don’t think she would be believable if she were happy and upbeat.
In that one, doesn’t he also think that Ashton Kutcher is Willis’ son?
Sounds snarky. Not jesting out of fun. More like seriously taking the Mickey.
What kind of a moron would go on a show like this??
What kind of a moron would go on a show like this??
Which one?
Imagine the woman in that video as Commander in Chief during a time of war.
Inspiring leadership, no?
The dude is obviously not near the caliber of Don Rickles.
If Don would have done this kind of thing, everyone would have been doubled over.
Gotta be a lovable ass.
Plenty! Today was the first time I had seen it.
That is funny!
H: “No, no, I wouldn’t take up arms. I think that would be a little extreme.”
Z: “Oh, right, before you were saying before we were rolling that you wanted to take away everyone’s guns. Very cool. Cool. Cool cool cool.”
H: “I really regret doing this.”
My favorite exchange. She looked to be genuinely PO’d.
I may have it embroidered by a woman who does crewel work and framed.
It’s a horse of a different color to see Her Heinous zinged, even if it is staged.
I’d follow up with:
Your clothes look a little dingy, are you running low on bleach?
Yes, but, I can’t see her agreeing to do that script.
The “I regret doing this” seemed awfully real.
In a different thread about this it was suggested that this is her play for millennial votes by trying to look hip.
I think that may backfire. Millennials and younger people really seem to have a dislike for adults they perceive as disingenuous or pandering.
Then watch it. It will make your day.
I remember the same kind of “interview” by Sasha Cohen aka Ali G with Henry Kissinger, who got the joke and handled the banter really well.
Ah, the interview was with Boutros Boutros-Ghali.
Hysterical, because he got the joke.
I’m sure they sold it to her on the idea it would help her with the millennials, and that it would make her seem more self aware. I am surprised she did it though.
