Mueller got some answers, but he's not done with Trump
President Donald Trump on Tuesday finally submitted a set of written responses to Robert Mueller, signaling that he was done for good with the special counsel's questions.
But Mueller is far from done with him.
The special counsel still wants to question the president over his actions while in the White House Tuesday's answers only covered Russian hacking during the 2016 election. It's a fight that could result in a historic subpoena and eventual Supreme Court ruling, pulling a defiant Trump into a legal squabble that could set groundbreaking precedent for presidential investigations for years to come. Depending on how the battle plays out, House Democrats may even try to pounce and launch impeachment proceedings.
Things could get explosive fast. Next comes the perilous round of negotiations between Trumps lawyers and Muellers prosecutors covering topics like Trump's intentions when firing FBI Director James Comey in May 2017. That line of questioning which Trump says he shouldn't have to answer is tied to Mueller's ongoing obstruction of justice investigation.
These are very deep waters and complicated questions, said John Q. Barrett, a St. Johns University law professor and former associate who worked under independent counsel Lawrence Walsh during the Reagan-era investigation into secret U.S. arms sales to Iran.
