Hillary Clinton may not have won the election, but a year later, she’s still finding things to laugh about. Last night, the former Secretary of State (and winner of the popular vote) sat down with Seth Meyers to drink some champagne, talk about change, and crack some seriously funny jokes. Her interview spanned subject matter from this week’s exciting election results to her disapproval of President Donald Trump and his administration, but Clinton really seemed to have the most fun when she joined Meyers and staff writers Amber and Jenny for his “Jokes Seth Can’t Tell” segment.

The basic premise of the segment – which sees Meyers lob jokes too politically incorrect for him to tell and his staff writers deliver the punchlines – couldn’t have been a better format for Clinton to playfully roast herself. “According to a recent article, Chardonnay is making a comeback,” jested Meyers. “And they said I wouldn’t be able to create jobs,” Clinton deadpanned back, poking fun at her admission that she’d begun drinking a lot of wine post-election.
“The retractable roof on Atlanta’s NFL stadium is not working properly,” Meyers began. “Oh, well, at least that ceiling’s broken!” Clinton shot back, prompting a round of applause from the audience. She drove it all home with a helluva kicker. “According to a recent report, koalas may be extinct by the year 2040,” Meyers set her up.
“And according to Fox News, that’s my fault.”
