On Friday, President Donald Trump caved to Democrats to reopen the government. In a deal, Trump said he would temporarily reopen the government without funding for his wall at the US-Mexico border.
"Right now as everyone's reacting to this, right-wing media is going off over this. How will the Sean Hannity's of the world defend Trump on this?" CNN's Brooke Baldwin asked political reporter Eliza Collins.
"I don't know if they can. On my way over here I was texting with a conservative who was close to the White House and he said that this 'stabbed the base in the heart.' This was Trump's biggest promise to the base. They really wanted it and he's completely failed to do that and he failed to do it to Nancy Pelosi," she responded.
