Its been well over a month since President Trumps attorneys jotted down the questions Special Counsel Robert Mueller would like to ask the President.
But the leaking of the questions to the press earlier this week prompted Trump Wednesday morning to rail against one of Muellers apparent areas of interests, in a barely intelligible tweet that quoted an attorney Trump briefly considered hiring to his team.
Joseph DiGenova, who ultimately did not join Trumps legal team due to conflicts, is reportedly one of Trumps favorites due to his aggressive, often conspiracy-theory-tinged television appearances. The quote Trump tweeted is from DiGenovas appearance on Sirius XMs POTUS Channel and was played on Sean Hannitys Fox News program Tuesday night. (Trump is known to record cable news programs and watch them later.)
DiGenovas comments were a reference to an area of questioning Mueller has signaled to Trumps legal team that hed like to explore, concerning Trumps motivations for firing former National Security Advisor Mike Flynn and former FBI Director James Comey.
