President Trump and his legal team will likely decide whether to arrange an interview between the president and special counsel Robert Mueller within the next 10 days, according to Trump's lawyer, Rudy Giuliani.

“We don’t want questioning on obstruction. They would have to concede that,” Giuliani added.

Trump is under investigation for possible obstruction of justice charges related to his firing of former FBI Director James Comey. Trump, who has offered multiple reasons via Twitter for choosing to fire Comey, told NBC News last year that Mueller's Russia investigation into possible ties between his campaign and Moscow drove his decision to oust Comey.

The special counsel's office did not respond immediately to Politico's request for comment.

1. Lol "We don't want questioning on obstruction."

No matter what Mueller's investigation suggests, Trump's team is going to say "No".

[cstanleytech]

17. Not to mention that its absurd to think that Mueller would agree to have

his hands tied over what questions he can ask.
It's clear by now that what will happen is Trump will have to be subpoenaed at which point he will probably invoke the 5th but even that will only delay the inevitable.

[ProfessorGAC]

21. Yes. We Don't Want Any Questions. . .

. . .pertaining to the actual things we did and that you might be trying to prosecute.

But, we can meet to talk about golf or hamburgers or something.

[C_U_L8R]

2. This gusher of insider snippets...

are all coming from Team Trump... with a PR purpose. Pay no mind to the blathering Trumpanzees.

[Renew Deal]

3. Why doesn't he want questioning on obstruction?

He’s clearly innocent isn't he?

[Jarqui]

4. He's not going to answer questions voluntarily

If Trump doesn't fire Mueller to buy himself more time, Mueller will eventually subpoena Trump and then Trump might cut a deal on the testimony or just plead the 5th.

Something like that in my opinion

[LandOfHopeAndDreams]

5. Ground Rules

No Collusion Questions

No Obstruction Questions

No Russia Questions

No Financial/Tax Questions

Anything else is fair game.

[CanonRay]

7. I'd say golf is in

but you can't ask him if he cheats.

[ProfessorGAC]

22. We Don't Need To Ask

I've seen that swing, and i've the putting stroke. The handicap that is advertised is only explained by copious cheating.

5 footers are gimmes. Second chips don't count. Balls in the woods dropped outside the trees with no penalty.

[NCDem47]

10. Exactly

Dude, you conspired with Russia and then lead a cover-up about it. What else is there to talk about? All a ruse to make it look like he has nothing to hide to a bunch of lemmings.

[truthisfreedom]

18. No election finance violation questions.

[LoveMyCali]

19. Or questions

about his family.

[forgotmylogin]

20. No questions that begin with "Who, What, Where, Why or When"... (n/t)

[CanonRay]

6. I'll believe it when I see it.

He's never going to sit for an interview

[Botany]

8. Bonnie & Clyde, "we don't want questions about bank robberies, murder, national guard armory, .....

.... break ins, kidnapping, or stolen cars."


*****

“We don’t want questioning on obstruction. They would have to concede that,” Giuliani added.

Ah Rudy, the obstruction charge is what brought about Bob Mueller & the special counsel in the
first place. Remember firing Comey to stop this "Russia thing?"

[lagomorph777]

24. No need to question about obstruction. Trump already confessed on national TV with Lester Holt.

Move on to the meat of the case: TREASON.

[Squinch]

9. Which means now we know trump won't meet with Mueller within the next 10 days.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

11. Months ago, Giuliani claimed two weeks to have the whole Russia-Trump inquiry wrapped up & closed.nt

[amcgrath]

12. Refusing to be interviewed

For a year is obstruction.

But refusing to answer any questions on obstruction, is in a league of its own

[unblock]

16. He obstruct Justice. It's what he does. Why would he stop now?

[Sneederbunk]

13. Make him sweat Bob, make him sweat.

[Kajun Gal]

14. Yeh, right. He is way too skeered to talk to Mueller.

[Firestorm49]

15. What Bullshit

If you’re innocent, you have nothing to hide. This ass can’t come out in sunlight.
As a side note, Mika Brzezinski on Morning Joe today made a comment about how they (Morning Joe) have to tone down the seriousness of our current national mess in their reporting. Oh, good!
(scarcasm)

[lagomorph777]

23. They've been saying that every 10 days for a year.

It's always a day away.
