'Poor Sean Hannity': MSNBC guest bursts out laughing at Fox host trying to reel Trump in
On Friday morning's "Morning Joe," regular MSNBC contributor and Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson laughed his way through trying to describe Donald Trump's Fox News interview on Thursday night with personality Sean Hannity.
Moments after MSNBC co-host Joe Scarborough observed that the former president did not "look well" during the interview and has been "shuffling around," Robinson began laughing as MSNBC displayed a chyron reading: "Dazed and Confused: Trump mixes up Biden with Obama, again."
As Robinson told the MSNBC panel, Hannity was forced to try and keep the former president on track and on topic and it was painful to watch.
"Poor Sean Hannity," he joked. "I don't often feel sorry for Sean Hannity, but I did because he had just absolutely teed up the ball, and Donald Trump, you know, hits the lamp on the table or whatever. It's just ridiculous. What more can he do?"

"You know, the thing about Donald Trump, of course, is that he is pure id in the Freudian sense," he elaborated. "He blurts out whatever is on his mind, so you know what's on his mind is trying to stay out of jail. You can tell from the recent appearances how worried he is that he is going to go to jail; he is going to have to pay massive, massive fines in all these various cases."
"Who knows how much he'll have to pay to E. Jean Carroll?" he asked. "He's going to have consequences for his actions, not just over his presidency, over his long life in which he crosses the line all the time. He is all about crossing the line. He is so worried that he's going to have to go to jail, that this is what he is thinking about more than he is thinking about the campaign. More than anything else he wants to stay out of jail."
