Trump Lawyers Still Trying to Limit Scope of Interview

March 19, 2018 · 5:19 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“President Trump’s attorneys have provided the special counsel’s office with written descriptions that chronicle key moments under investigation in hopes of curtailing the scope of a presidential interview,” the Washington Post reports.

“Trump’s legal team recently shared the documents in an effort to limit any session between the president and special counsel Robert Mueller to a few select topics, the people said. The lawyers are worried that Trump, who has a penchant for making erroneous claims, would be vulnerable in an hours-long interview.”
