It looks like Hillary Clinton is getting pretty comfortable with her campaign style.

The Democratic presidential hopeful joined Jimmy Fallon on another episode of The Tonight Show Thursday evening, the same day as the ninth Republican debate. The last time the 68-year-old politician visited Fallon, it was the night of the second Republican debate. The host is starting to notice a trend. 

"I think you're dodging watching these debates," Fallon teased. The former Secretary of State couldn't hide the truth of the matter. 

"I think you nailed that," she admitted.

A frequent focus of Republican discourse, Clinton contemplated Fallon's idea of playing a drinking game while viewing the debates, though she worries it may pose a serious threat to her health. 

"I don't think I'd make it past the first half hour," she joked. 

Instead, Clinton took her mind off her opponents with a hysterical photo shoot with Fallon on her Snapchat account. Smize, Hillary!

One of her least favorite opponents, Donald Trump, is also a periodic guest and subject of The Tonight Show.

"We had Donald Trump on the other night—I don't know if you saw," Fallon asked. 

"I didn't," she responded with a full-bodied chuckle. "He's a lot more obsessed with me than I am with him."

So, is this candidate at all intimidated by Trump's endless quips about her?

"No," she said blankly. In fact, if the election ends with them as the final two, Clinton insisted "it will be quite the showdown."

While there is still over 10 months until the next president is chosen, Clinton has her brand new granddaughter Charlotte to occupy her downtime. 

However, the 1-year-old toddler may be more entranced by a Sesame Street favorite than her accomplished grandmother. 

"Among her very first sounds was Elmo," Clinton revealed. 

But, can Charlotte say White House?
