President Trump reportedly dined with Fox News personality Sean Hannity at the president's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida this weekend.
The Palm Beach Post also reported that Trump golfed with Hannity on Saturday.
“The president was in a very good mood. He seemed very, very happy,” longtime Republican operative Larry Casey, who was a guest at the club, told the Post.
Casey added that he saw the two golfing together, while the president remained uncharacteristically silent on social media.
Their meetings come as the White House searches for a replacement for Hope Hicks, Trump's longtime aide and White House communications director. Hicks's last day in the White House was on Thursday.
On the one hand you would think that common sense dictates that hiring Sean Hannity as you communications director would ridiculous on its face, but then you might thing "Why in the hell am I attributing common sense to any decisions that Donald Trump might make?"
And of course Hannity is likely far more effective for Trump lying his ass off for him on Fox News, then he would be lying his ass for him to reporters at he White House.
(Here he is begging James Comey to come on his show, while at the same time attacking Anderson Cooper and CNN as "fake news.")

However I actually think that Hannity's job is in jeopardy at Fox, and that he might be looking for a soft place to land, which would make a gig at the White House much more attractive to him.
Look I don't know, we're just speculating here.
But what I do know is that if Trump gave Sean Hannity a job in his communications department, he might as well go ahead and tap Sarah Palin for a cabinet position as well, because he has already crossed over the line of lunacy at that point.
