Mueller prepares to end Russia probe WITHOUT interviewing Trump after president's lawyers say sit-down can't happen in wake of Cohen raid

Talks between President Trump's legal team and Special Counsel Robert Mueller have collapsed, according to NBC News, and so Russia investigators are looking to move forward without a presidential interview.

On Monday, Trump's lawyers were working out some of the interview's final sticking points, when the law offices and the hotel room of the president's personal Michael Cohen were raided.

After that, the possibility of a sit-down between the president and the special counsel 'drastically dimmed,' NBC wrote, with a source telling the network that the Cohen raid 'significantly complicated' talks. President Trump's lawyers have indicated that he won't be sitting down for an interview with Special Counsel Robert Mueller in the wake of his longtime lawyer Michael Cohen's office being raided by the FBI +1

Prior to the Cohen raid, Mueller's team had wanted to finalize a report on whether the president obstructed justice in the Russia investigation in the next few months, with three sources telling NBC News that report could have come as early as May or as late of June.

But now without a presidential interview, Mueller and his team may be able to wrap things up even sooner, as the lawyers won't have to prep for a sit-down with Trump.

NBC's story comes on the heels of President Trump complimenting himself for cooperating with Mueller.

'I have agreed with the historically cooperative, disciplined approach that we have engaged in with Robert Mueller (Unlike the Clintons!),' Trump wrote.

Seems reasonable. They cleared Hillary without interviewing her (under oath).

So Mueller is just going to voluntarily give up and announce the the entire Deep-state/Democrat/Media 18 month narrative of “Russia collusion” was all just big, empty, farce??

OK, sure.

Hahaha. Malignant, proto-fascist mueller and his coven of LIB losers now prove evermore that they have zero integrity and are seditionists who wasted millions of taxpayers’ dollars. What a pathetic group of insipid degenerates. Now they have to return to slip-and-fall, ridiculous class action or other ways to make some money. Respected professional NOT. They should be in prison.

Mueller can say “well folks I tried everything possible to nail Trump and there was nothing. So don’t blame me”

More than likely, he will cherry pick data from Cohen’s files to prop up his false narrative.

Mueller lies. The penultimate dispatch was that he would be submitting an interim report in June or July. But with a liar, who knows.

So is Comey one of Mueller’s witnesses? How can Comey tell all in a book to be released next week if Mueller is using his testimony in his report?

I can’t bear to watch, but the haters will be talking about Mueller subpoena Trump to be interrogated before a grand jury. If it doesn’t happen, will they say Mueller was threatened? They won’t go down easy.
