WaPo: Mueller preparing report on Trump’s actions in office

Special counsel Robert Mueller is preparing a report on President Trump’s actions during his tenure in office and anything that could be considered obstruction of justice, according to The Washington Post.

Sources told the Post that Mueller relayed the information to Trump’s legal team, and emphasized his team’s need to sit down with the president in order to determine if he had any intent to foil the federal probe into alleged ties between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Trump was reportedly relieved to hear that Mueller had not considered him to be a criminal target, and has expressed more willingness to agree to a future interview. 

The president has said in the past that he would be willing to sit down with Mueller’s team. 

However, the special counsel still considers the president to be a subject of his investigation into Russia’s role in the 2016 presidential election.

Trump’s advisers have warned that the special counsel could potentially put the president at risk of becoming a criminal target.

Trump has repeatedly denied that there was any collusion between his campaign and Russian election meddling and has referred to Mueller’s probe as a “witch hunt” and a “hoax.”
