Trump refuses to comment on whether Mueller report should be made public

President Trump declined to say Sunday whether he wants the findings of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s investigation made public, saying he would instead defer to the Justice Department.

“Totally up to the attorney general,” Trump said. “That’s up to the attorney general. I don’t know. It depends. I have no idea what it's going to say.”

William P. Barr, Trump’s nominee to be attorney general, has not said whether he plans to release information to the public — be it the report he receives from Mueller or a different summation of the report. Some Trump allies and aides fear the findings will be damaging, and the president’s lawyers have said they are crafting their own report to counter Mueller’s.

The president’s comments on the investigation, which the acting attorney general said is wrapping up soon, came in a wide-ranging interview with CBS News. Among the highlights of the interview: The president said he is keeping another government shutdown on the table, outlined disagreements with top intelligence officials, argued that keeping troops in Iraq is vital to watching Iran, contended that having a Cabinet packed with interim secretaries is a plus for his administration and again attacked former defense secretary Jim Mattis by falsely saying he forced him to resign.

Exposing him as a total fraud, con man, broke , and a treasonous career criminal who has been laundering russian money for putin for years. All the other crimes against him will put him and the family away for a long , long time. That's why he's acting out so much lately. Its getting very close to him becoming fully exposed. He was probably offered a deal , but wouldn't take it.
