Instead of following predecessors who compelled evidence from President Nixon during Watergate, and President Clinton in a scandal over his personal behavior, Mueller chose not to subpoena Trump.
Some legal experts said Trump’s intent, “corrupt” or otherwise, may be impossible to discern because he was never compelled to explain his actions under oath. According to his report, Mueller’s team believed it had the authority and legal justification to issue a grand jury subpoena to obtain the president’s testimony. But Mueller “chose not to do so” because of the prospect of a protracted legal challenge from Trump’s lawyers.
In March 2018, Mueller broached the possibility with Trump’s lawyers of issuing the grand jury subpoena. But he never sought to enhance his leverage with Trump by obtaining the subpoena, and gave only a brief explanation of his reasoning in the report.
When the answers are 'I don't know', 'I can't recall', 'um', 'duh'...why would you try? As Trumps Atty said, put him under oath and he'll be wearing an orange jump suit....
Only because Mueller believes Trump can't be charged *right now* as a sitting president, but *can* once he leaves office. Interviewing Trump a second time would have been a waste of time - just more 'I don't recall.'
