So I'm sitting here with the news on in the background. The topic being discussed is the questions Mueller's team indicated they'd ask Trump.
So, about what did the reporter state Mueller's team said they wanted to query Trump? It seems the specific questions are:
I had to laugh out loud upon hearing that's what Mueller's team told Trump's lawyers they would ask!
Those are central questions in every criminal investigation for which mens rea is relevant! From one investigation to the the next, the only difference being that the investigators put someone's name there instead of Trump's.
I truly hope to learn whether the remarks are what Mueller's team actually (or effectively) said that is what they'd ask or whether it's a WH staffer's distillate of what Mueller's team said they'd ask. If it's the former -- and I really hope it is -- it's one of the best sardonic bitch-slaps I've seen in a long time; stuff that good doesn't generally make it into the public sphere. If it's the latter, well, it's less funny, but it's still emblematic of what's widely understood about the sapience of many Trump WH staffers.

- What did Trump do/say?
- What was he thinking when he did/said it?
