Giuliani says written answers won’t address obstruction issue

Lawyer predicts ‘serious discussions’ a day after elections



President Donald Trump’s legal team has prepared written responses to several dozen questions from Special Counsel Robert Mueller but say they won’t submit them until after next week’s elections and only if they reach a broader agreement with Mueller on terms for the questioning.

Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s personal attorney, said in an interview Monday that the answers relate only to whether Trump colluded with Russia during his presidential campaign. He said the legal team is still unwilling to answer any questions concerning obstruction of justice by the president.

Giuliani also said that a face-to-face interview with Mueller is “off the table” for now but isn’t being ruled out completely.

In an interview with Fox News Monday, Trump suggested he would provide some answers to Mueller but didn’t address whether he would agree to an interview.

I'm sick and tired of hearing about how Trump is going to sit down with Mueller and then ok answer questions from Mueller, no he isn't.

There is only one narrative, Trump refuses to testify in the Mueller investigation. eom.

One of Trumps prior lawyers told Trump to his face that if he answered
Mueller's questions in a sit down interview and or had to give testimony
under oath he would end in prison for perjury.

Not only does Trump have all his dirty money deals, obstruction of justice
charges but at the end of the day he worked w/Russia to rig the elections.
