Schiff says Trump’s written responses to Mueller are not adequate

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) on Wednesday called on President Trump to sit down for an in-person interview with special counsel Robert Mueller and his team, saying that the president's written statements to the special counsel's office were insufficient.

Schiff, who sits on the House Intelligence Committee, said Mueller needed the opportunity to ask follow-up questions based on the president's responses.

“There really needs to be a live interview with the president because you need to be able to ask follow-up questions in real time," Schiff told CNN on Wednesday.

Schiff also said the committee, under new Democratic leadership next year, would pursue phone records related to the setup of June 2016 Trump Tower meeting between Trump campaign associates and a Russian lawyer who had promised dirt on then-Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

"In terms of whether [the president] was aware of the meeting at Trump Tower, there is important, relevant information that we were not allowed to get [previously]," Schiff told CNN.

"One of the key documents, for example, that we are going to pursue are the phone records that would show who was on that call [Donald Trump Jr.] had sandwiched between those calls to set up the meeting at Trump Tower," he added.

Mr. Shiffty Eyes had best be careful for what he wishes.

President Trump should never expose himself to Mueller's questioning. It was clear years ago about Mueller's abuse of prosecutorial power. The current conflict with Mueller and Corsi is a current illustration of that.

The ComDem members of the House Intelligence Committee are waist deep in the treasonous acts of the Comey FBI and the Obama holdover DOJ.

Pretty absurd considering that Mueller agreed to accept the written answers.

Of course he has. He's in the Deep State loop.

Tell him to pound sand. Any response...ANY, would only “raise more questions”. They won’t ever be satisfied because that is not their intention.

“the president’s written statements to the special counsel’s office were insufficient.”

Translation:

The answers are bullet proof and theres nothing we can use to damage the POTUS.

It’ll never be sufficient to these people.

Adequacy is not Adam Schiff’s strong suit.

President Trump had interpreted the Congressman’s name quite correctly.

Adam is irrelevant.

He'll be less happy when Trump declassifies intel data.
