Evidently angry over Laura Ingraham being forced to take a surprise “vacation” after she lost almost all her advertisers, Sean Hannity has decided to return fire at Jimmy Kimmel for some reason. He attacked the ABC host for gently poking fun at First Lady Melania Trump reading a book to kids at the White House Easter egg roll and Kimmel’s not taking it lying down.

Sean Hannity decided to start a feud with late night TV host Jimmy Kimmel because the ABC star poked fun at Melania Trump on his show. Kimmel returned fire last night, delivering a blistering monologue that called Hannity out for just about everything.

Kimmel hit back at Hannity for calling him an “a– clown” and mocked the Fox News host for only recently coming to the defense of immigrants (a reference to the Slovenian-born First Lady). He also attacked Hannity for supporting accused pedophile Roy Moore in the Alabama senate special election last year. “If I’m an a– clown, you’re the whole a– circus!” Kimmel went on to drop the mic, “You know what I think is disrespectful to the First Lady? Cheating on her with a porn star after she has a baby!”

Hannity then escalated the feud on Twitter, dredging up old clips from Kimmel’s four-year stint as co-host of Comedy Central’s The Man Show, which he left 15 years ago. He started calling Kimmel “Harvey Weinstein Jr.”

Kimmel responded, inviting the pathetically outmatched Hannity to bring it on:

And Hannity responded, suggesting he’d been talking to Kimmel’s employer, the head of Disney:

Hannity then tweeted out scripts from The Man Show, a show Kimmel left 15 years ago, as some kind of threat followed by a “poll”:

Pretty ballsy to attack someone’s writing skills in a typo-ridden tweet. Also he’s really determined to make “Harvey Weinstein Jr.” stick! Doesn’t really roll off the tongue or make any sense, good luck with that Sean!

Kimmel defended himself and flipped the script on Hannity, who I guess forgot that Kimmel is funny even without a team of writers:

Hannity retreated to what he must feel like is friendlier territory, doing his best “How DARE you sir!?” while defending the First Lady against a late night comedian’s jokes:

But let’s take a look at what Hannity tweeted right before that:

Hannity suddenly deciding FLOTUS is off-limits seems to be a new development, also Michelle Obama didn’t even say the quote he’s attributing to her in the tweet.

Kimmel fired back:

And Hannity returned to his bizarre “Mr. Harvey Weinstein Jr.” schtick:

And Kimmel just went IN on him:

Meanwhile, Twitter was eating the feud up, with people dunking on Hannity’s pathetic stunt and mocking him for hypocrisy:

Tom Arnold let him know how futile the whole thing was:

While It’s clear Hannity wants to give “The Left” a “dose of its own medicine” by trying to get Kimmel fired, it’s not likely to work. The clips are 15 years old and no one outside of Hannity’s rabid audience cares about them. His audience might not even care about them, after all, they did vote for Trump.
