Giuliani: Trump Won’t Answer Questions on Obstruction of Justice
Questions from the Mueller team about whether the president tried to block investigation of Russian meddling are a "no-go," the lawyer tells AP.NEW YORK — President Donald Trump will not answer federal investigators’ questions, in writing or in person, about whether he tried to block the probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election, one of the president’s attorneys told The Associated Press.
Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani said Thursday that questions about obstruction of justice were a “no-go.”
