President Obama Joined Samantha Bee For A Spooky Halloween Interview
"I'm dressed up as what happens when young people vote."
Continuing his tour of the late night circuit that has seen him read mean tweets on Jimmy Kimmel and get job tips from Stephen Colbert, President Obama stopped by Full Frontal on Halloween for a spooky interview with Samantha Bee.
“This year I’m going as a witch” Bee told the President, despite the fact that she wasn’t wearing a costume. “I’m a woman on television and I’m over 40, so I’m already in costume. Where’s yours?”
“”I’m dressed up as what happens when young people vote,” said Obama.
“Someone gets really old really fast?” shot back Bee.

Naturally, the pair spoke about Trump. “After you leave office, have you thought of just whispering in Donald Trump’s ear ‘you were right, I wasn’t born here’, just to like mess with him?” asked Bee.
“I think it’s fair to say that I will be organizing my post-presidency where I’m not close enough to him to whisper in his ear,” Obama responded.
They also touched on the sexist commentary that President Hillary Clinton will inevitably face, with Bee asking what Obama thought the “female equivalent” of “you weren’t born in this country” will be.
“She’s tired, she’s moody, she’s being emotional,” Obama guessed. “When men are ambitious, it’s just taken for granted.”
