Mueller's new rope-a-dope

This is why rope-a-dope is so effective.

The last paragraph describes the written answers as an "interim" measure, not a final resolution of the issue of Trump being interviewed or subpoenaed.
Still, I see why Team Trump leaked what looks like a win.

And get his answer on record, whatever it is, even if it is actually written by his lawyers. Then ask him again later, in person, and watch him contradict himself.
