On Wednesday, the wave of news around the Mueller investigation seemed to crest with a bevy of headlines about how the special counsel was now targeting President Trump himself for an interview. That interview would presumably cover Trump’s firing of former FBI director James Comey, his alleged request to Comey to let now-indicted former National Security Advisor Mike Flynn go, and his pressure on various officials ranging from Attorney General Jeff Sesssions to deputy FBI director Andrew McCabe with regard to the Trump-Russia collusion investigation.
According to The Washington Post, Mueller wants to interview Trump in particular about the firings of Flynn and Comey. Sessions and Comey have both met with the special counsel investigators. One source told the Post that Mueller “has also expressed interest in Trump’s efforts to remove Sessions as attorney general or pressure him into quitting…The person said the special counsel was seeking to determine whether there was a ‘pattern’ of behavior by the president.”
