The 2016 Democratic presidential candidate said she was "honored," joking, "This makes it significantly less awkward that I've had a Pete Davidson tattoo for years."
Saturday Night Live castmember Pete Davidson on Friday posted a photo on Instagram indicating that he got a tattoo of former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
Accompanying the picture of the ink, Davidson said the "tattoo of [his] hero" was meant to be a Christmas gift for Clinton.
"Thanks for being such a badass and one of the strongest people in the universe," he added. The picture is the only photo on his verified Instagram account.
Clinton herself later commented on the post, in which Davidson tagged the former secretary of state.
"Thanks," she wrote. "This makes it significantly less awkward that I've had a Pete Davidson tattoo for years. But seriously, I'm honored. Merry Christmas, my friend."
Tattoo artist Jon Mesa, whom Davidson credited for the ink, told UsWeekly that it's legit.
"Yes, it's real! Just did it last night at my shop No Idols Tattoo on Bowery and Grand! Its a small one on his right leg," Mesa told the outlet.
Following the 2016 election, Davidson made an appearance on SNL's "Weekend Update" segment in which he lamented Donald Trump becoming president and how his home borough of Staten Island had voted for the Republican candidate.
"Donald Trump being president is something I used to say when I was high and laugh at how crazy it is, and I'm high right now and it is not funny," said Davidson, who later suggested that people upset about the election take it out on their Trump-supporting relatives. "I know a lot of you are upset and scared and sad, myself included, and to everyone feeling that way, I think it's important to hold on to that outrage, hold on to your anger and frustration and let it build and build, so you can release it at the exact right moment: Thanksgiving."
The comedian revealed in March that he'd quit doing drugs and gotten sober, and in September he opened up about how he's been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder but is slowly getting better. Davidson later poked fun at his health issues during another appearance on "Weekend Update" this fall, in which he joked that having more of his sketches might improve his symptoms.
"If you are in the cast of a late-night comedy show, it might help if they, you know, do more of your sketches," he said.
When "Weekend Update" co-anchor Colin Jost asked, "Are you saying that you are depressed, because you are not getting enough airtime?" Davidson replied, "No. I was born depressed. But it might make me feel better if I was on TV more."
Isn’t his own father a much more appropriate her for him than Hillary Clinton. Or Trump or Sanders for that matter.
Man, this guy is an idiot. When he acts in skits written for him, hes almost funny. Anything HE CHOOSES or writes sucks.
Isn’t that the label for the guy who can suck start a leaf blower?
Peter Davidsons father was a firefighter who died on the stairs of the World Trade Center.
His son is nevertheless pretty dumb. I hate his act about masturbation or whatever it was. It was too stupid to remember. And getting a tattoo of Hillary who is arguably the most corrupt person on planet Earth does nothing to increase his intellect or appearance of same.
I have one tattoo.
It’s a vine with three wreaths on it of my father, uncle Ralph and Uncle Jimmy, three men i loved very much, all of whom served our country.
Can’t even see it with a t shirt on it’s so high up on my arm.
It’s the first and last i’ll ever get.
Thanks for the info about him. His dad was one of the many heroes.
This is a very strong finish for 2017 Cuck of the Year.
Probably. Under the circumstances, it was probably the best joke that could have been made. I would actually give her credit if she thought of that one herself. But probably she didn’t.
As a reminder, this is a guy with severe mental problems. He is a heavy marijuana user, and has said he can’t get thru a day without it.
To sum it up, the guy is a head case. No one should take anything he says or does seriously.
” An age old tactic to try to get chicks.”
In no reality could HRC be considered a chick.

More often than not, a tattoo is a permanent reminder of one’s temporary insanity.
No Regerts
Won't that be in the way when the trickle... Oh, nevermind.
Sad and pathetic.
He’s either profoundly ignorant or has mental problems.
The mark of the Beast.
