    Yashar Ali  🐘Verified account @yashar
    New: In a tense meeting in March with Mueller, Trump’s lawyers insisted he had no obligation to talk with investigators. But Mueller responded that he had another option if Trump declined: He could issue a subpoena for Trump to appear before a grand jury. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/mueller-raised-possibility-of-presidential-subpoena-in-meeting-with-trumps-legal-team/2018/05/01/2bdec08e-4d51-11e8-af46-b1d6dc0d9bfe_story.html …

        U.S. v. Nixon (1974) — POTUS not above process; can be subpoenaed by federal government.

        Court rejected POTUS claim of absolute executive privilege. Held POTUS can be subpoenaed if part of criminal proceeding.

        In footnote 2, the Court noted that it was not deciding issue of whether sitting POTUS can be indicted, thus leaving that issue to be decided another day.

        It wouldn't be a very long fight. This has long since been established. Criminal investigations serve a higher public interest than that of the needs of executive to maintain secrecy. See also US v Nixon

        Since the President has continually stated "no collusion", and he did nothing wrong, he shouldn't have any problem answering Mr. Mueller's questions. Correct?

        Why? Ken Starr subpoenaed Bill Clinton. There was no portracted court fight.

        Replying to @mkraju

        If they were performing an investigation of a specific crime, maybe they could, but Mueller is investigating to see IF there are any crimes. Since there is no criminal investigation, there is no "obstruction of justice", no reason to be compelled to say anything.

        If there is no complaint, then there is no "justice" being done.
