Colbert asked, “Are you jealous?”

Additionally, Clinton said “Bill and I watched bad TV, a little binge watching here and there”.

This “Late Show” appearance occasioned a cordial give-and-take, where perhaps Colbert’s toughest question was: Why is she running for president?

Colbert asked her if she ever watched HOC and “yawns” probably because she’s seen it all.

‘I can say it now, it was mutual, ‘ Clinton shot back.

The answer is the most direct Clinton has given on what would happen if the nation’s biggest financial institutions were to get into trouble if she were in the White House. Colbert brought up her birthday, which was Monday.

Immediately, Colbert asked Clinton about her birthday, which was yesterday, tying it to last Thursday’s Benghazi testimony.

Another query: Which Republican front-runner would Clinton rather run against, Ben Carson or Donald Trump?

“Well”, Clinton responded, triggering whoops from the studio audience, “I can picture them in a few office”.

‘We get the ’90s back? “But I’m going to do what works, and we have an understanding of what works”.

Clinton said her campaign wasn’t a return to the ’90s, but still paid Colbert a compliment. “These videos capture Hillary as a colleague, visionary, friend, woman of faith, mother and mentor-they’ll make you laugh and inspire you”. Most importantly, they’ll leave you convinced that Hillary Clinton is the leader this country needs.

Finally, making light of Clinton’s recent marathon-length Benghazi testimony before Congress, Colbert suggested that revelers could ‘go dressed up any way they want, but they have to stay for 11 hours, ‘ the comedian said, bookending his first joke.
