Reporter Quotes Rubio Staffer Trashing ‘P-ssy’ Hannity, So Hannity Attacks “Asshole’ Reporter
Sean Hannity has described himself as a proud conservative who’s beyond frustrated with the Republican establishment in Washington, which is why some on the right have been a little mystified as to why he seems incredibly supportive of Donald Trump. Hannity has expressed admiration for Trump rivals like Ted Cruz, but he has expressed no serious public reservations about Trump becoming the GOP nominee, even if others have.
Naturally, this would give way to frustration from some of Trump’s other rivals. Enter one anonymous Rubio staffer who gave a pretty blistering quote to Politico reporter Marc Caputo about the Fox News host:
Rubio World has a new enemy: Sean Hannity. Staffer: "what a fucking asshole. He lets Trump trash everyone for months….

…"But Marco gives Donald a taste of his own medicine and Hannity gets all offended. He's a pussy and a sellout." Boy, they're angry 2/2

Hannity responded by going over his frustrations with Marco Rubio but also, for some reason, attacking the messenger:

And Caputo did not take that lying down:
Touchy boy! I was quoting some1, not picking a fight. But your work as a waterboy has earned you your shill-status https://t.co/jhjFdlQpav
