Jimmy Kimmel Mocks Eric Trump for Crying on Hannity, ‘He’s Less Masculine Than Ivanka!’

Two nights ago, we reported on Eric Trump’s appearance on Hannity. Now, of course, this appearance occurred even before the news that Mazars was dumping the Trumps hit the press. But we suspect Eric knew it was coming because, as we noted at the time, it certainly appeared that Eric’s eyes were red and teary as he cried to Sean.

But, while Eric may have been crying about Mazars and his family’s financial fate, he was actually talking about Hillary Clinton. Yes, Hillary, everything old is new again. Special counsel John Durham made a rather inconsequential (truly) filing on Saturday, seemingly to give the MAGAs something to chew upon over the news that Trump was destroying and hiding documents.

Eric wanted to know why all the prosecutors were going after the Trumps and why wasn’t any prosecutor going after Hillary. He literally came across as someone with too little sophistication to understand that prosecutors follow evidence, they don’t have an “equal time” rule like the networks do during campaign season.

And so he cried, “where are the prosecutors.”

In the event you missed it, please catch up:

Last night, Jimmy Kimmel addressed the entire situation, as summed up by Huffington Post:

“There’s nothing more depressing than getting dumped by your accountant during tax season,” Kimmel said. “It’s like getting divorced on Christmas Eve.”

Kimmel was ready with an answer and – unlike what the audience and anyone else might expect, though the answer was funny, it wasn’t a joke. Kimmel is both correct and serious:

“If you wanna know where the prosecutors are, the answer is gathering evidence against your grifter father,” he said. “That’s where they are.”

WATCH: (The part about Eric being a little baby starts at 4:12 and the video is synched to start then so you don’t have to fast-forward!)
