Trump lawyers seek to offer Mueller an interview in exchange for wrapping up probe: report




47. Boy they sure are on tenterhooks about ending this!

The only way would be Mueller ending the interview with. "All right, this is the end of the investigation. You have the right to remain silent..."

72. Mueller is probably rolling his eyes.

He prosecuted Noriega, the Lockerbie bombing, and the Gambino crime family. I'm sure he's heard it all before and knows exactly what to do.

Attorneys for President Trump are reportedly considering asking special counsel Robert Mueller to set a hard end date for his investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election as one of the preconditions for an interview with president.

While Trump's lawyers remain split on the terms of such a deal, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday, they also want Mueller to agree to parameters on the scope of such an interview.

One idea being floated is that Mueller would agree to wrap up the probe within 60 days of interviewing Trump.

Trump has said he is "looking forward" to speaking with the special counsel's team, but his lawyers have repeatedly emphasized that he would only agree under certain conditions.

23. This story came from Trump's lawyers

Robert Mueller's team doesn't leak. Trump's attorneys are trying to float a balloon to show that Trump can be "reasonable." When Mr. Mueller actually tries to schedule an interview with Trump, his lawyers can say the Mr. Mueller is unreasonable.

At that point, of course, Mr. Mueller simply has one of his grand juries issue a subpoena.

Trump cannot be interviewed or even give testimony because he will perjure himself. The man lies like I breathe. His lawyers know their client. It will be fascinating to watch this play out.
