Democratic primary front-runner Hillary Clinton appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert for a very casual interview at Carnegie Deli in New York City.
Colbert began the interview by asking if her husband, former President Bill Clinton, would nag her about eating meat due to his unfortunate vegan condition.
The former secretary assured him that her husband wasn’t a “snobby vegan,” which then lead Colbert to question if he was really a vegan.
At one point in the interview, Colbert had a kind of an interesting question. He asked Clinton:
“Politics seem to be finding common ground,” the host said. “What do you have in common with your likely opponent Donald Trump, other than the fact you have beautiful daughters and you both were at his wedding?”
Clinton appeared to think long and hard before answering:
“I’m not sure yet. I’m not sure what I have in common with him,” Clinton said, pivoting away as fast as possible. “However when you are president and you’re working with the Congress, there are lots of opportunities to find common ground.”
Finally, they shared a hilarious exchange in which Colbert showed the former secretary how to eat cheesecake without looking silly, prompting Clinton to let out a gut busting laugh.
When the check finally arrived, Colbert made a face like “Holy shit that’s a lot,” before casually asking Clinton if they could split the check. After the former secretary had agreed, Colbert told her that he’d be right back. At which point the comedian ran out the restaurant as fast as he could.
