An extensive Analysis of the questions Mueller wants to ask Trump

... snip

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

*Intelligence Community Assessment and Mueller's indictment of Russians both confirm that Russia had an explicit goal of trying to help elect Donald Trump through hacking/disseminating damaging information on Clinton and pushing fake news/disinformation online.
*The Intelligence Community has explicit intelligence indicating this order came directly from Putin.
*Papadapolous plead guilty to lying to the FBI and had been reported by our allies to have been discussing Russia having Clinton emails before it was publicly known.
*This was the official start of the FBI investigation
*Trump had asked Russia publicly to find Hillary's missing emails
*Trump and his campaign frequently promoted Wikileaks
*Trump Jr appears to have gotten some communication from Wikileaks during the election
*Roger Stone spoke with both Assange and Guccifer 2.0 during the election
*The Cambridge Analytica whistleblower claims that Bannon was early on testing messaging for Putin/Russia
*The Cambridge Analytica whistleblower claims a Russian Official was asking questions in regards to targeting for unknown reasons
*SCL Group (tied to Cambridge Analytica) had paid Flynn
*Mueller has already indicted the Russian Internet Research Agency and multiple individuals in response to their involvement and interference in the 2016 election.
*Multiple Trump associates promoted accounts tied to the Internet Research Agency during the election.

Interference was wide spread and Trump's team seemed willing to work with Russia on multiple occasions. Its again a question of whether or not this is some widespread campaign conspiracy that Trump somehow didn't know about (unlikely) or was part of a coordinated plan.

1. We know these questions did NOT come from Mueller for a variety of reasons not the least of which are the multiple grammatical and spelling errors. So where DID these come from?
