A devastated Chelsea Handler broke down crying on her Netflix talk show on Wednesday night while discussing Hillary Clinton's staggering loss to Donald Trump.
The comedian, who has been an incredibly vocal hater of Trump for the entire Presidential race, was reduced to tears as she explained how she planned to leave the country after the billionaire businessman was voted in.
'I want to move to Spain. I really, really want to move to Spain right now. Everyone in my office is like, ''you have a responsibility, you have a voice and you need to use it and you have to be here'',' Handler said.
The Chelsea host had Senator Barbara Boxer on the show to help make sense of the results.
Handler explained that she decided that, since Clinton made it through her concession speech without crying, she could try to do her show without crying as well.
Only it was only a few minutes before the tears started coming.
'Sorry, I hate f—ing crying on camera,' an emotional Handler.
She then went on to give an important message aimed at women.
'I know as a woman, it feels so sexist (that Trump won). I guess the message I went to get out is not to give up. Because this is so important. It's easy to throw in the towel,' she said.
Handler also said that she believed the language that Trump used during his candidacy should have disqualified him from running for president.
She was not the only talk show host to be overcome with emotion on Wednesday night, with Seth Meyers also moved to tears throughout his opening monologue.
Meyers, who recently became a father, said at the top of the show: 'I do really feel for the parents who had to explain this to their kids this morning. Especially parents with daughters because a lot of them like me probably thought Hillary would be our first woman president.'
He went on to say: 'But she won't be. But that does mean - that does mean that someone's daughter is out there right now who will one day have that title. Maybe you're a woman who is currently a senator. Maybe you're still in college.'
