Hillary Clinton Makes Peace with Her RNC Squirrel Stalker

Hillary Clinton has been followed by two entities on her book tour: the national press, and a giant orange squirrel. No, that’s not a joke, the RNC has a giant orange Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers reject character following Clinton around on her tour, and today Clinton finally came face to face with her gigantic foe.

Seriously, just look at this.

Clinton found this squirrel (with a t-shirt reading “Another Clinton in the White House is Nuts”) and presented it a copy of her book. She said, “I hope that you make a hard choice and read my book.”

And, apparently, it was signed.

.@HillaryClinton, thank you for feeding the squirrel http://t.co/uDoaWvTTey pic.twitter.com/D475Op3Emc

Man, whichever intern the RNC is parading around in that giant suit must have had a real nutty day…
