Sean Hannity goes after 'ignorant a**hole' Jimmy Kimmel for slamming Caitlyn Jenner

On Hannity Monday night, Sean Hannity went after Jimmy Kimmel for what he said about Caitlyn Jenner on Jimmy Kimmel Live last Thursday. A night earlier, Hannity interviewed Jenner in her Malibu airplane hangar, during which she spoke about a conversation she’d had with another private plane owner who was leaving California because of the homeless problem.

“Is it transphobic to call a trans person an ignorant a-hole?” Kimmel asked. “Or does calling that trans person an ignorant a-hole, even though she happens to be a trans person, show that we don't discriminate against ignorant a-holes no matter their gender orientation?”

“Jimmy, what is with all the anger and all the cheap shots?” Hannity shot back. “Yeah, in case you haven’t noticed, homeless people all over your state. And by the way, don’t you have anything better to do? Maybe actually trying to be funny or boost your dismal ratings?”

Hannity then called out Kimmel for bits he’d done on Comedy Central’s The Man Show in the early 2000s (which was co-hosted by frequent Fox News guest Adam Corolla), and once again challenged Kimmel to renew their feud from 2018.

“Let’s remind people, take a trip down memory lane,” Hannity said. “You wanna talk about ignorant a**holes? This is you dressed as Karl Malone. And check this out. This is you, an ignorant a**hole, when you had a cucumber in your pants during The Man Show. Maybe your bosses at Disney can talk you out of your bad behavior. You talk about my show, I’ll hit you back 50 times harder. Ball’s in your court.”

SEAN HANNITY: Jimmy, what is with all the anger and all the cheap shots? Yeah, if you haven't noticed, homeless people all over your state. And by the way, don't you have anything better to do? Maybe actually trying to be funny or boost your dismal ratings?

- On Monday, Sean Hannity went after Jimmy Kimmel, who slammed Caitlyn Jenner last week for comments she made about homelessness in an interview with Hannity.

JIMMY KIMMEL: Is it transphobic to call a trans person an ignorant a-hole? I mean. Or does calling that trans person an ignorant a-hole, even though she happens to be a trans person, show that we don't discriminate against ignorant a-hole, no matter what their gender orientation?

- Hannity went on to call out Kimmel for bits he did on Comedy Central's "The Man Show" in the early 2000s, a show that was co-hosted by frequent Fox News guest Adam Corolla.

SEAN HANNITY: Let's remind people, take a trip down memory lane. You want to talk about ignorant [BLEEP] holes? This is you dressed as Karl Malone. And check this out. This is you, an ignorant [BLEEP] hole, when you had a cucumber in your pants during "The Man Show."

- And it appears Hannity is looking to renew his long-standing feud with Kimmel again.

SEAN HANNITY: Maybe your bosses at Disney can talk you out of your bad behavior. You talk about my show, I'll hit you back 50 times harder. Ball's in your court.
