Hillary Clinton received a packet of jokes which were never told by comedian Stephen Colbert, because they had been written with the expectation of a Clinton victory in the 2016 presidential election.
Colbert handed Clinton the “Election Vault: Unused Clinton Victory Jokes” during a “Late Show” interview Tuesday, which is part of Clinton’s book tour for her campaign memoir, What Happened.

Included in this packet, Colbert revealed, was a picture of the backsides of five naked men, with a message for Clinton.
“One of the things we were going to do that night to celebrate now that a woman was in charge, is that we were going to have naked men on the stage,” Colbert said, eliciting a round of laughs.
Colbert showed Clinton a picture of what could have aired on Colbert’s Election Night special on Showtime, which prompted her to cover her eyes with a hand and exclaim, “Oh my god!”
Colbert then showed the picture to the audience and cameras, which showed that the letters painted on them men’s butts spelled out, “I’m with her!”, which was a slogan of Clinton’s campaign.
Colbert then gave the packet to Clinton, joking that she should “put this in a secure vault.”
“No one will ever see it. I wish we could have told those jokes,” he added.
“Me too,” Clinton said.
“I wish you were our president,” Colbert said, closing out the segment.
