Mueller gives Trump's attorneys possible topics for interview
CNN ^ | 1-24-2018 | Pamela Brown and Gloria Borger

Special counsel Robert Mueller has provided lawyers for President Donald Trump with a range of topics he wants to ask about as part of ongoing negotiations regarding an interview with the President, ....

Mueller's team has also made clear it is seeking a sit-down interview with Trump, according to these sources. The President said Wednesday he is "looking forward" to that interview, subject to the advice of his lawyers.

As the President's attorneys try to whittle down Mueller's areas of interest, a source familiar with the matter says the special counsel has obliged by offering a list of topics, including learning more about the President allegedly asking former FBI Director James Comey to drop the investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

WTF is TRUMP such an IDIOT??!!

All he needs to do is PARDON Assange, he will go to Congress & show proof those emails weren't from Russia

TRUMP can then fire Mueller right away, give no damn interviews, Sessions can then unrecuse himself, FIRE Rosenstein or send him to Antartica for his new job!

Case closed!!!!

DJT process crime trap, aka suicide mission.

If he does testify in any manner, he will be shortly (within a year - two at most) be out of office having been Impeached in the House and Removed by the Senate. Pence will follow soon after in the same trap. The Democrats will sweep the House and Speaker Pelosi will be elevated to President.

The fix is in and DJT is going full tilt into a no-win trap.

Can DJT somehow circumvent this scenario via some as yet unknown or unrevealed mechanism? Don’t know. No one does; we are entering uncharted Constitutional territory which - if the above scenario plays out - will end what’s left of the USA - a scenario begun in the 1970s (with the beginning of the War on Natural Resource Harvesters) will finally reach a conclusion.

Trump is no fool.

Yes, he shoots from the hip.

Does he have a position, going into the “interview” that will by it’s nature neuter Mueller? Guess we will see.

Kind of funny about how many here seem to think they know more than Trump does or that he’s being played....and they think he has no idea of the kind of traps that may lurk with Mueller....

The morning network radio news played much of yesterday’s PDJT’s question/answer session with reporters in the White House. One of the female reporters said that she was not sure if Hillary’s interview with the FBI was under oath or not. PDJT pressed her on this so she repeated her answer. Her “not sure” should be broadcast repeatedly among the Outrageous News of the day. Was it lying on her part or are swamp media people so able to hide from the facts that they can say something like this with a straight face?

Maybe media people think that since ignorance works for politicians, it can work for them too.

Which special rules the female reporter at the White House yesterday said she was not aware of, at least that Hillary was not under oath. Listen to The entire Q&Abetween the press and PDJT. It is only audio so the swamp media probably won’t play It, especially since it shows what a brilliant mind POTUS has in dealing with the swamp Media.

Scooter Libbey’s Perjury conviction had nothing to do with the so-called outing of Valerie Plane. It was because his recall of a timeline on when some embargoed piece of news differed from the recall of a Sunday morning TV talk show host. The SP prosecutor charged Libbey and a jury in DC convicted him.

Do not submit to questioning by Mueller, Mr. President.

Exactly, tomkat! I swear, we need a special "Pearl Clutcher" room in Free Republic for the precious snowflakes who can all congregate and swap their fears about what is to occur in the Trump administration - totally ignoring the MAGA that is happening...

Oh, come on. PDTJ is 3-4 moves AHEAD of these morons.

Miss Diana,

I would highly AGREE with you.

An attorney friend of mine who resides in California said he thinks that if Trump were to actually meet with Mueller it would be because he had devised a way to literally take Mueller down and bury him permanently.

He did NOT give me details of how he might do that.

Ugh. Sekulow.
Not a real attorney, although he likes to play one on TV.

Yeah, you must be right. Any non-attorney can argue 12 cases before the United States Supreme Court, win 9 cases outright and receive partial wins in at least 2 others.

Why would anyone need to be a real attorney to do that?

Sessions can then unrecuse himself, FIRE Rosenstein or send him to Antartica for his new job!

I've heard Ed Rollins as well as a half dozen other very reliable and objective political observers continue to say that "Session is in over his head" and has "LOST control of the DOJ" and should permanently recuse himself as Attorney General and quietly go back to Alabama.
