Trump dares Mueller to subpoena him - by Jonathan Swan, Mike Allen

Jonathan Swan, Mike Allen 2 hours ago

President Trump will not voluntarily answer questions about obstruction of justice, gambling that Robert Mueller won’t have the stomach for a court fight.

A source close to Trump’s legal team tauntingly tells us it’s “Mueller’s moment of truth.”

If Trump agrees to an interview with the special counsel, questions about obstruction of justice are a "no-go," Rudy Giuliani tells AP's Jonathan Lemire.


Wait! Bob Woodward's book (which won't even be in stores for four more days) ... the anonymous Times op-ed ... the confirmation hearing for a change-the-balance Supreme Court justice ... have been momentarily eclipsed?

That's right. In a high-stakes move designed to force Robert Mueller's hand, Giuliani said Trump won't answer the feds' questions — in writing or in person — about whether he tried to block the probe into Russian election interference.


Giuliani later seemed to backtrack, telling NBC News that those questions are "not ruled in or out."

He always says one thing first and then changes it within a day. I think they try to get the truth out first and then whisper the lie just so no one knows what’s going on.
