CNN host Don Lemon said right-wing media are influencing Trump’s decisions, including the one to shut down the federal government over a stalemate with Congress regarding billions in funding for his border wall.

“Republican leaders in Congress thought they had a deal with the president to let everyone go home for the holidays and keep the government funded through February. That’s until Trump apparently got spooked by Ann Coulter and the outrage of right-wing media and blew up his own administration’s deal,” Lemon said in the opening to his show Friday.
