Sen. Collins: Trump Needs to Stop Talking About Mueller Probe

President Donald Trump needs to just stop talking about FBI special counsel Robert Mueller and his investigation into Russian meddling in the U.S. election, Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said Sunday.

"I understand how difficult and frustrating this investigation is for the president, but he should not say anything further about the special counsel, his staff, or the investigation," Collins told CBS "Face The Nation" host John Dickerson.

"I know it's hard, but he needs to step back and not comment and let Bob Mueller — who is an individual of the utmost integrity — carry out the investigation and make his determination," she added.

Sen. Collins, in addition to being a part of the Senate Intelligence Committee probing Russia's meddling in the past election, is one of the potential holdouts of the GOP's plan to repeal and/or replace Obamacare next week.
