The special counsel's officer, the legal team at the white house learned more and more about what bob mueller has. i think that's one the day to convince the president to not respond to questions regarding obstruction. to stick to his guns about only written responses. he does this at his own peril. i find it mildly amusing the president announced we are finished. it doesn't matter if the president thinks we're finished. it matters if bob mueller thinks they're finished. mob mueller's not finished. if you refuse to answer questions about obstruction, you're refusing to simply state i didn't in...
