This matters:
“he would be willing to answer questions under oath, but not until after asking whether Hillary Clinton, his 2016 campaign rival, has spoken under oath to the F.B.I. in the investigation into her use of a private email server while she served as secretary of state”.

That is the most important sentence in Trumps statement.

who does Trump think he’s dealing with, a bunch of Gollywood flunkies or a Brooklyn labor union steward. Mueller is dangerous, and he’s on a mission. The Dems want Trump’s head on a plate, and Mueller intends to give it to ‘em.

...Release the friken memo and shut this whole thing down!!!...

Maybe Trump knows when it will be released and knows it will crush Mueller and the Democrats before he says anything.
It could just be the next episode of Trump theatre making fools of liberals again .

Interesting. Mueller doing a coup d' etat by hounding his opponent from the office granted him by the EC . .

That pretty much sucks

“He also said he would be willing to answer questions under oath, but not until after asking whether Hillary Clinton, his 2016 campaign rival, has spoken under oath to the F.B.I. in the investigation into her use of a private email server while she served as secretary of state. Mrs. Clinton gave a voluntary interview to investigators in July 2016”

Heh heh! You see the conditions in his answer? Mueller has to answer truthfully if Clinton was under oath in order to get Trump to commit or not commit to speaking to Mueller under oath. I think I remember the news stories at the time that speculated that she was not under oath. Trump will demand the same conditions!

Bad idea or 6D chess? Trump just called Mueller’s bluff. There has been NOTHING in this “investigation” to date.

Mueller’s sole purpose is to impeach Trump. This is DUMB beyond belief.

This is not a good idea, though it seems he is qualifying his cooperation.
under oath or not under oath, Making false statement to a Fed is a crime.

Trump: raise your right hand and repeat after me: I Robert S. Mueller III, solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

Mueller: Wait what?

Trump: I said that I would be happy to talk to you under oath.

“FJT is, respectfully, crazy not to just fire Mueller and shut down this entire circus”

Yup. Talking to mueller just gives legitimacy to this deep-state coup.

Damn the impeachment torpedoes and gut the entire DOJ starting with that rat bastard Jeff Sessions. I would fire every fed govt apparatchik that voted for Hillary. But I’m a softy that way.

Time to bring this boil to a head. Enough of this sh!t.
If Congress wants to go for impeachment, it’s go time anyways. It’s 8 years past go time. I have the tar...Can you order bulk feathers on Amazon?

Call in the press and cameras to broadcast live. Make Mueller expose his tactics.
