Framing of a President, Leaks, Lies, and False Documents Robert Mueller’s team or someone closely tied to them leaked to the New York Times the questions Mueller hopes to ask President Trump. The questions are open-ended softball questions meant to entrap for some process crime such as lying. There are four dozen questions. Many of the questions concern James Comey, his friend, who connived to launch the probe on obstruction charges with Mueller in charge. Many of these questions concern tweets which should not be part of a serious investigation. How is the President supposed to remember all this? The answer is he’s not. They want to accuse him of lying.
