There is something inherently humorous and infantile about how Trump’s lawyers are treating the prospect of Trump talking to Mueller. On one level, I kind of understand. No lawyer wants their client talking to law enforcement. On the other hand, the President gets a lot of legal leeway in what he’s allowed to get prosecuted for, and from a purely public point of view, you have to wonder what his legal council is trying to keep Trump from saying. Trump is even bringing on a new lawyer to help (after he condemned the New York Times for reporting that and claiming he wasn’t). And their tactics to limit Mueller’s access to Trump have been weird…This week, they’re presenting “documents” to Mueller’s team, essentially a narrative that they pinky promise is the total and complete truth and is totally, completely as useful as Trump’s own testimony.
