    Folks: Everything you "know" about Mueller's alleged desire for an interview comes from team Trump. But while brickhead Rudy's been talking up a subpoena fight, Mueller's laid out, brick by brick, indictment by indictment, the path to what may be an entirely different next step.

        What about Sekulow's list of questions, though, certainly those came from Mueller's team somehow?

        In early March. NYT has been retelling that story on a near weekly basis ever since.

        I think it possible we'll see an indictment of very senior people in the nearish future, with Trump named as Male 1 or similar.

        He's said in the past he doesn't believe president can be indicted. Likely indict those around him and list him as conspirator.

        I need someone with intimate knowledge of the law to explain to me why you couldn't indict a sitting president if that president had committed a crime. The president is not a king. The president is not above the law. Does impeachment have to happen first? #LawSplain please.

        How many of those indicted will ever step foot in this country? Of the remaining few, how many have anything to do with collusion? Can we stop pretending that Mueller is on some massive case?

        Exactly. We need his interview just as much as we need an “n-word tape” to know he’s a racist. #wedon’t

        Completely agree - I hate we're caught up in this "interview" drama. Despite all the howling to the opposite, a lot of media sources hang on to Giuliani's every word. We're still giving Trump's team the ability to control the narrative.

        AND he may not ever need a single statement from Trump to come to his conclusions. Then Trump will cry "they never gave me a chance to tell my side of the story" - fortunately, that BS can't be taken up to the Supremes.

        Lots of loose ends still: - DOJ IG report about 2016 SDNY; - Roger, Caputo, Credico, Peter W Smith, Greenberg, etc; - Butina, NRA, JD Gordon; - Daily obstruction, witness tampering; There's no 'wrap up' anytime soon.
