Trump claims Mueller has ‘no questions on collusion’ despite list with 13 questions about collusion
Wishful thinking.

On Tuesday morning, President Trump responded to the New York Times publishing a list of questions that special counsel Robert Mueller reportedly wants to ask him by touting that there are “[n]o questions on Collusion.”

“So disgraceful that the questions concerning the Russian Witch Hunt were ‘leaked’ to the media,” Trump tweeted. “No questions on Collusion. Oh, I see…you have a made up, phony crime, Collusion, that never existed, and an investigation begun with illegally leaked classified information. Nice!”

There’s just one problem — the list actually contains 13 questions directly pertaining to “campaign coordination with Russia,” as the Times puts it, including:

— When did you become aware of the Trump Tower meeting?

— What involvement did you have in the communication strategy, including the release of Donald Trump Jr.’s emails?

— During a 2013 trip to Russia, what communication and relationships did you have with the Agalarovs and Russian government officials?

— What communication did you have with Michael D. Cohen, Felix Sater and others, including foreign nationals, about Russian real estate developments during the campaign?

— What discussions did you have during the campaign regarding any meeting with Mr. Putin? Did you discuss it with others?

— What discussions did you have during the campaign regarding Russian sanctions?

— What involvement did you have concerning platform changes regarding arming Ukraine?

— During the campaign, what did you know about Russian hacking, use of social media or other acts aimed at the campaign?

— What knowledge did you have of any outreach by your campaign, including by Paul Manafort, to Russia about potential assistance to the campaign?

— What did you know about communication between Roger Stone, his associates, Julian Assange or WikiLeaks?

— What did you know during the transition about an attempt to establish back-channel communication to Russia, and Jared Kushner’s efforts?

— What do you know about a 2017 meeting in Seychelles involving Erik Prince?

— What do you know about a Ukrainian peace proposal provided to Mr. Cohen in 2017?

You can read the full list of the questions Mueller wants to ask Trump here.

Trump’s casual lie about the nature of Mueller’s questions illustrates why his legal advisers think it’s risky for the president to sit down for an interview with the special counsel.

1. The Collusion Denier will never admit it even after the evidence is in his face.

2. This "list" probably came from Trump

1) I don't think Mueller would leak this, and he runs a tight ship

2) If the list did start with Mueller, and made its way to Trump, it may have easily had parts of it reworded or omitted by the Trump leaker before it was leaked

3. But but but they didn't use the word collusion

So it doesn’t count.

5. This. Of course Trump isn't smart enough to extrapolate out from the questions

[Wellstone ruled]

4. Well,that pretty much nails the so called leak source.

And the source is------Donnie Dipstick via Rudy 9/11. Notice Donnie's tweets after he leaks a story. Trump drops these puke bombs and then reply's after he sees what the public reaction is .

Same crap just another day.
