Report: Sean Hannity is Advising President Trump

The Daily Beast came out with a report that says that Fox News host Sean Hannity is also acting as one of President Trump's advisers. 

The DB writes that Trump is at odds with his own chief law enforcement officers over a controversial memo fueling Republican allegations of a conspiracy against the Trump presidency. But by all indications, the president is less amenable to the concerns of his own FBI than those shared by a less formal, more bombastic adviser.

That adviser is Sean Hannity, who has been hyping the so-called Nunes memo all week, and with whom the president continues to speak regularly.

The Beast says that Hannity is one of Trump’s top “warriors” on the outside, along with his other Fox colleagues who double as informal advisers to Trump, such as Lou Dobbs and Laura Ingraham.

Among other things, Trump consulted Hannity on the Iran deal late last year shortly before the president strongly weighed killing it.

"Senior counselor to the president, Sean H[annity]," one senior White House official joked to The Daily Beast this week.

In the end, though, Trump’s favorite media personalities may hold greater sway over the president’s decision than even his own FBI director.

Think about that for a second.

Scary huh? 

Hannity tweeted out this response to the story:
