Trump to give Mueller answers to written questions by Thanksgiving

https://www.politico.com/story/2018/11/19/trump-mueller-written-questions-thanksgiving-1005374

President Donald Trump will give special counsel Robert Mueller written responses to a slate of questions as early as Tuesday.

Trump’s lawyers set an informal Thanksgiving deadline for the president to finalize his responses on topics surrounding the Russian hacking of the 2016 election, and he’s almost ready to submit them, according to two sources familiar with the conversations.


The president’s written answers — which carry the same legal burden for truthfulness as an in-person interview — are likely to be submitted as Trump settles into his Mar-a-Lago club in South Florida for the Thanksgiving holiday. Trump is scheduled to depart Washington, D.C., on Tuesday afternoon.

Trump over the past week has spent several hours with his legal team, including Rudy Giuliani, Jay Sekulow and Jane Raskin, finalizing his answers to questions from the special counsel focusing on his time before he was sworn in as president.

No Collusion!
Highly Conflicted!
No Senate Approval!
Deep State!
12 Angry Dems!
Crooked Hillary!
Emails/Private Server!
Comey!
McCabe!
Peter Strzok and His Lover!

+ roughly 50,000 instances of the words 'Me and I' ...


Then we'll pretty much know that 'his' answers ... are actually nothing of the kind.
