This was written just before Hannity's show last night, which consisted largely of old clips from The Man Show and Hannity professing outrage while saying he really, really didn't want to do this, and he definitely wasn't doing this for political reasons (other than those evil liberals attacking conservatives), and so on...
This take from thee Toronto Star's entertainment columnist still applies:

It cant be done. The man will never achieve dumbass nirvana. His idiocy is as limitless as the cosmos. Trying to measure it is like trying to calculate pi. Forget the catering and limo service; if Fox News truly cared about its star lunatic it would hire a bodyguard to shadow him and ensure he doesnt injure himself: No, Sean! Dont eat that! Its a plastic apple! Stop it, Sean! Thats not Hillary! Youre punching your own face! Sean, youre wearing your Trump Underoos over your pants! Dont taunt that pit bull, Sean! Its a dangerous stray dog its not part of the MSM!
Just when I think Hannity cant possibly become a bigger moron, he starts a feud with Jimmy Kimmel. He commences hostilities with a guy who lives for public brawls. He insults an insult comic, which is like slathering pig guts over your torso and leaping into a tiger cage.

Now, I dont know if Hannity has lost his mind because hes so freaked out by the Russia investigation. Or if hes just lost without having Obama as a nightly punching bag. I dont know if he was short on material that night after producers gently steered him away from a planned segment on why God doesnt trust immigrants.
What I do know is any war of words between Kimmel and Hannity is a mismatch that cries out for UN intervention, new Geneva Conventions and a mercy rule.
Kimmel is America: his mouth is a nuclear superpower.
Hannity is Costa Rica: hes got a couple of muskets strapped to his molars.

In the wee hours on Friday, presumably weepy and reeking of whiskey, Hannity moved the feud to Twitter. He posted clips from Kimmels old The Man Show. He called Kimmel a pervert and Harvey Weinstein Jr. He did what Hannity always does after a public humiliation: flail about in the ether and grasp at straws.
Let it go, Sean. You are over your head because there is nothing in your head.

Sean, if you wanted to be a bigger idiot, you'd have to put on weight.
