If Judge Aileen Cannon were to grant the prosecutors’ request for a gag order, it would be the third that Donald Trump has been subject to during his criminal proceedings.
In his New York hush money criminal trial, Trump was placed under a gag order by Judge Juan Merchan that barred the former president from discussing witnesses, jurors, prosecutors, court staff, and relatives of the district attorney. Trump repeatedly reposted content that directly attacked Michael Cohen and others involved in the trial. He also publicly criticized the jury.
