Hillary Clinton shows her sassy, funny side in spoof interview with Zach Galifianakis

Secretary of sass.

This is…wait for it…HILL-arious.

(Sorry).

‘Between Two Ferns’ is a popular spoof interview series hosted by actor Zach Galifianakis on the website Funny Or Die. In the past, Barack Obama, Justin Bieber, and Brad Pitt have subjected themselves to Galifianakis’ deliberately insulting line of questioning.

The latest to sign up is US Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, who is looking to appeal to younger voters by any means necessary in the lead-up to her crucial first presidential debate against rival Donald Trump next Monday night.

In the five-minute clip, Galifianakis asks Clinton if she’s excited to be the first “girl president,” before reminding her that “for a younger generation you will also become their first white president, so that’s pretty cool, too.”

He also goads her by asking “as Secretary, how many words per minute could you type?”

Fair play to Hillary, she peppers her replies with sass alongside policy, and gets a few digs in at Trump too.
