But perjury on peripheral details would not lead to any tangible consequences for him, short of ego. This congress isn't going to impeach over that. Surely his advisers have informed him of that.I would like to hear it from. Your standpoint, not Trump's.I'm looking at it from Trump's standpoint.
I would not want to be in the group that says, "Those who have nothing to hide, hide nothing." Once you sit down and are sworn in...the questioning can go anywhere.
So I can't blame him for not sitting down.
Now....he has said he would give a sworn deposition to Mueller.
May 4:
"Nobody wants to speak more than me — in fact, against my lawyers. Because most lawyers say, 'Never speak with anybody.' I would love to speak, because we've done nothing wrong," Trump said before departing for Dallas.
If he wants to speak, he should do it.
My viewpoint is that I would love to see it. But I doubt I will.
Perjury is a crime. You can be impeached for crime. Lying to the press is one thing, lying to an FBI SAIC which is what Mueller is tantamount to in this case, that carries a penalty.
