Special Counsel Robert Mueller could gag President Donald Trump if he criticizes and attempts to influence the investigation into alleged collusion between the Trump camp and Russia, according to a Watergate prosecutor.
The president lashed out at George Papadopoulos on Tuesday, after court records revealed that the former campaign aide pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI – indicating that he is cooperating with Mueller’s investigation.
According to an FBI affidavit, Papadopulos attempted to broker a meeting between the Trump campaign and Kremlin officials several times during the election campaign.
“Few people knew the young, low level volunteer named George, who has already proven to be a liar,” Trump posted on Twitter shortly after 8am local time, adding: “Check the DEMS!”
Attorney Nick Akerman, a prosecutor in the Watergate investigations, told Politico Friday that Mueller could issue a gagging order to prevent the president interfering with the investigation.

Which is exactly what the Democrats are hoping for.
Warning: FAKE NEWS
Hey! I know “ Ron the f@@@ing toilet!” He’s sh!thead!
The proper response, is for a bunch of Federal Marshals to kick down Mueller’s door, pin him to his desk, while one of them holds a telphone receiver to his ear over which he hears Trump say “Bring it, pissant.”
Nothing but old-fashioned yellow journalism.
Where was this guy when Clinton and every other Democrat were bad-mouthing Ken Starr?
Ooooo, Respect my authoriti!
The Constitution states that Donald J. Trump is Your Boss
You can't ever arrest him
Only remedy is Congress and impeachment
If true you should be fired for insubordination
Forget the Constitution. Mueller, Rosenstein, Sessions and their underlings work for the entrenched Deep State now. Trump is only allowed to make a few suggestions from afar.
So Robert Mueller thinks that he is the most powerful man in these United States.
Congratulations !
You have won my Freepie Award for the Funniest Post of the Week...nay, perhaps for the month!
Good one !!!

Can a gag order even cover tweets?
The special prosecutor works for the DOJ.
DOJ is part of the executive branch.
The head of the executive branch is the president.

Trump to prosecutor: “shut up, or get fired.”
FWIW, the argument is that the President’s tweets are interfering with the government’s right to a fair trial.
Mueller didn’t say this, some old bullying prosecutor from the swamp said it. If Mueller tries that, he will find out who runs the executive branch.
I doubt that Mueller has much in the way of gonads. If so, I wonder who has their hands on his peanuts squeezing. Anyone want to predict?
Former prosecutor. From 40 years ago.
