Donald Trump and Sean Hannity have a bedtime phone call with each other most weeknights, according to a bizarre report from New York magazine. Hannity is reportedly on a short list of people who can contact the President directly including Eric Trump and Donald Jr, private-equity billionaire Stephen Schwarzman, media mogul Rupert Murdoch, real-estate billionaire Tom Barrack, and Patriots owner Robert Kraft. Hannity’s call tends to come after 10pm, with the report saying: “Their chats begin casually, with ‘How are yous’ and ‘What’s going ons.’ On some days, they speak multiple times, with one calling the other to inform him of the latest developments.” The content of the calls varies between news and “gabbing like old girlfriends about media gossip and whose show sucks,” the report states. Hannity was revealed to be a client of Trump’s personal attorney Michael Cohen last month despite efforts from Cohen’s lawyers to keep it secret.
