Rudy Giuliani gets that sit down meeting with Robert Mueller. Is told that interview with Donald Trump is "essential."

Courtesy of WaPo: 

Rudolph W. Giuliani, President Trump’s new personal lawyer dealing with the ongoing probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election, met with special counsel Robert S. Mueller III on Tuesday to reopen negotiations for a presidential interview, ­according to three people familiar with the talks. 

Giuliani, who joined Trump’s legal team last week, conveyed the ongoing resistance of Trump and his advisers to an interview with federal investigators, but did not rule out the possibility, the people said, adding that Giuliani pressed Mueller for clarity on when the probe is expected to end. 

In response, Mueller reiterated that he would like a chance to ask Trump questions about steps he took during the transition and early months of his administration, the people said. The special counsel emphasized, as he did in conversations in March with Trump’s team, that an interview is essential for investigators to understand Trump’s intent in making key decisions as they seek to wrap up the portion of the probe focused on potential obstruction of justice.

I actually think that Mueller WILL ultimately get his interview with Donald Trump, assuming that he is not fired of course, it is still to be seen whether the interview is voluntary or the result of a subpoena.

Kind of interesting that though these types of negotiations have been going on for some time, that we are just now hearing about them since Giuliani joined the team

It is almost like he is an attention whore or something.

    "Rump didn’t just stop at harming his legal defense.
    He set it on fire and celebrated while it burned."

    Did Rudy wear a dress to meet Mueller? Maybe he tried Sarah's old trick of a push up bra.

    "Republican Senate leadership gave their blessing to Judiciary Committee to advance the Mueller bill. Chuck Grassley and other Judiciary Committee Republicans weren’t going rogue when they voted for the legislation. McConnell and the Senate GOP leadership are both interested in sending Trump a warning not to fire Mueller and have legislation in their back pocket in case Trump does make a move on Mueller."
    "Senate Republicans like having Mueller in place because his investigation acts as a firewall between them and the Russia investigation. If Mueller is gone, the Russia scandal becomes their problem. McConnell and company are telling Trump not to fire Mueller."

  4. Why the hell hasn't Screwdy Rudy been subpoenaed to testify in the collusion with Drumpf campaign before the election?

    Rudy was bragging about old friends in the NY FBI office feeding him important info which I am sure wound up at Fake Noize.

    I think that Trump's meltdown on Fox and Friends this morning was just the beginning of many days that are going to illustrate just how far he is going off the rails regarding the Russia investigation. He is so freaking guilty and will just keep flailing around until he completely loses what little of his mind he has left.

      No. They found out what they thought they had "wrapped up" so tight, lightly reminded them its never happening. Oh. Well.

    They are going to need some court reporters that can type really, really fast in order to get all the lies that trump will tell in the first 5 mins of the interview.

    I am sure his attorneys keep telling him to shut up, but donnie knows best. Just tell donnie Obama would never allow himself to be questioned and trump will be there tomorrow.

      In my mind's eye I can see the entire staff pounding on the door to the bathroom, trying to get him to stop. I imagine that Kelly called Rupert who called Kilmeade and told him to pull the plug. Seriously, Kilmeade had to remind the POTUS that he's supposed to be a "busy guy".

    We aren't just now hearing about these negotiations between Trump's team and Mueller. It has been in the news that his team was meeting with Mueller for the last couple months.
