From the Washington Post this evening:
“Nevertheless, Trump has repeatedly expressed an eagerness to sit down for a voluntary interview to answer Mueller’s questions — a move [his attorney John] Dowd believed would be a mistake, according to a longtime Trump friend. Dowd told the president the case against him was weak, but warned Trump he could create criminal jeopardy for himself if he agreed to an interview and misspoke under oath, the friend said.”
So is it your view that any discussion with Mueller would (1) unavoidably get into privileged areas, and that (2) Trump would be incapable of discerning the boundary and (3) avoiding responding? I’m not defending Trump in any way. I just start with being unable to see how agreeing to an interview in and of itself leads unavoidably to waiving the privilege.
