It's an opinion piece by Steven G. Calabresi. Worth reading, but no real "new" revelation.
-- Why Rudy suddenly amenable to a Mueller interview? --
The way I read it, it isn't that Rudy has changed his position as much as he is acquiescing to Trump's preference.
News lately is so remarkably different from "Trump is hallucinating that Obama bugged the campaign." Yet no reflection or correction from the #FakeNews. They move on as if nothing happened.
I’ve been puzzling over the ‘common denominator’ of RM & RR: is it duress? Does CINC have to provide elaborate WITSEC protection to one hundred families to get them to co-operate? Kinda contradicts the NO DEALS doctrine, tho.
“Why Rudy suddenly amenable to a Mueller interview?”
People often miss the point at which one force turns from defense to offense. The people who are wondering about this really haven’t thought about what has been happening the past 10 days. Trump has transitioned from defense to offense. He’s hitting them at their weak points and the blitz is on.
Mueller is in a weak position that is getting weaker by the day. Mueller is extreme jeopardy, his life could quickly become Hell if he doesn’t do the right thing right now, right here. Trump is giving him one path out of Hell. One line of retreat that can be cut off at any moment. Mueller can interview Trump and then openly exonerate him, or Mueller can forfeit the rest of his life. His choice is that stark as the blitzkreig rolls over his position.
This is the offensive people. It’s rolling.
