Obama ethics chief warns Trump: Tweet on CNN could be evidence in AT&T case: Oops!
But Eisen suggested that Trump's tweet could be used to bolster the argument that the Justice Department's lawsuit is rooted in the president's personal dislike of CNN, rather than in genuine concern about antitrust laws.
Eisen also suggested that the president's tweet signals "collusion" between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, who signed amendments into law on Saturday requiring foreign media outlets working in Russia to be listed as foreign agents.
Special counsel Robert Mueller is investigating Russia's role in the 2016 presidential election, particularly whether Trump's campaign coordinated with Russian officials or representatives during the race. Trump has denied any improper contacts or exchanges between his campaign and Moscow.
