Trump is under no obligation at talk to Mueller. End of story. He might have an off the record conversation or send him a letter, but that is as far as it should go.
You don't get to question your boss, do you?

He has three, ignore the subpoena.
I've never expected that we'd be rid of Trump because of this investigation, but it seems even less likely to damage the Oranguton with Mueller not being interested in what Trump knew, and when he knew it, of Russia-Campaign connections. A president can hire and fire , at will within the Executive branch, subject to congressional confirmations. Unless there's some proof Trump was covering up something that could be seen as a crime, there's nothing here. Without some coverup of something very close to a direct quid pro quo with Russia, this won't hurt him at all.Mueller seeks to question Trump about Flynn and Comey departures
Trump talking under oath, what could possibly go wrong?
"Special counsel Robert S. Mueller III is seeking to question President Trump in the coming weeks about his decisions to oust national security adviser Michael Flynn and FBI Director James B. Comey, according to two people familiar with his plans.
Mueller’s interest in the events that led Trump to push out Flynn and Comey indicates that his investigation is intensifying its focus on possible efforts by the president or others to obstruct or blunt the special counsel’s probe.
Trump’s attorneys have crafted some negotiating terms for the president’s interview with Mueller’s team, one that could be presented to the special counsel as soon as next week, according to the two people."

The USSC already ruled 9-0 that a sitting president has to answer a subpoena.

Yeah, but if there's no crime implicating Trump's campaign in a quid pro quo with Russia, Trump didn't do anything wrong in firing Comey. It's illegal to cover up a crime, but it's not illegal to fire an FBI director over directing an investigation.I've never expected that we'd be rid of Trump because of this investigation, but it seems even less likely to damage the Oranguton with Mueller not being interested in what Trump knew, and when he knew it, of Russia-Campaign connections.

Maybe you haven't been following the news. It seems Trump fired Comey over the Russian thing, like he told Lester Holt. Now we find Trump had Sessions pressure Raymond Wray to fire Andrew McCabe

No they didn't and a president can ignore a supreme Court ruling.

Clinton v. Jones - Wikipedia
Both parties appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, which ruled in favor of Jones, finding that "the President, like all other government officials, is subject to the same laws that apply to all other members of our society
In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court affirmed the decision of the Court of Appeals

Do you know how many times Trump has had to prepare for, and give testimony? I think it's safe to say Trump will not be caught off guard.Mueller seeks to question Trump about Flynn and Comey departures

That’s all he needs to do.There's talk that Trump is gonna send a memo about this stuff.
If I were Trump, I'd tell Mueller to get fucked. He's under ZERO obligation to talk to him.
Mueller needs to investigate what happens to the perpetrators when coup attempts fail.
