Kim Kardashian and Hillary Clinton took a selfie you guys, and the internet just can’t handle it.
The reality star posted the photo to Instagram last night shortly after the first GOP debate wrapped up, captioning the picture: “I got my selfie!!! I really loved hearing her speak & hearing her goals for our country! #HillaryForPresident.”
The picture—which you’ll notice Kanye photobombed—received 737,000 likes. Even by Kardashian standards, that’s a lot of social media attention.
Earlier in the night Kim alluded to the fact that this selfie could be coming, tweeting that she was excited to be meeting “our next President” and that she hoped Hillary would take a selfie with her.
Kardashian matriach Kris Jenner got in on the political action too, posting her own selfie Instagram with the message, “An Honor to meet you Hillary Clinton! Great evening… #ohjustchatting.”
This isn’t the first time Kim’s made her political views known. In November last year she posted an animated video game-style image of herself with President Obama to social media, with the caption: ‘I’m standing w Obama in the midterm election 2morrow!’ The problem, of course, is that Obama wasn’t up for re-election, but we assumed Kim meant she was supporting the Democratic party in the midterms.

Despite the fact that she’s praised Republican Rick Santorum in the past and she’s admitted that her mother, Kris, and her late father Robert voted Republican, Kim (and Kris, to some extent) has since moved in with the Hollywood and fashion crowd, most of which are vocal Democrats, which probably explains her strong support of Hillary in the upcoming election.
Who knows, perhaps this shot will be the cover of Kim’s next selfie book.
