Hannity rides through Hanoi on scooter to make airtime


BY OWEN DAUGHERTY - 02/26/19 11:24 AM EST

Fox News host Sean Hannity travelled on scooter while in Vietnam, a popular local mode of transportation, to make it to his air time Monday night.

Hannity is in Hanoi to cover President Trump’s second summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un but found himself delayed, so he hopped on a scooter to beat the often congested city traffic.

“Plan B — we’re not making this up — I hopped on a scooter with some other staff of mine,” Hannity said Monday during his show. “By the way, we were riding on the sidewalk there.”

Hannity described the scooter ride as “interesting, chaotic and kind of fun.”

Wearing a suit and tie, the video showed Hannity on the back of a scooter zigzagging through the crowded streets. Some of the extra traffic, which Hannity said was at a "standstill," could be attributed to Kim's arrival.

...on crowded streets and had a couple similar experiences with local transport, I got a kick outta this.

Doesn't change the fact that he's a complete total reckless amoral right wing asshat.

I rode through heavy Tokyo traffic (around Shinjuku, if anyone is interested), at top speed, zigzagging lanes, and weaving around moving cars on the back of one of those things. I was never so scared in my life.

This Hannity nonsense was staged.
