Former Vice President Joe Biden on Tuesday said he would advise President Trump against interviewing with special counsel Robert Mueller if he were one of his lawyers, given the likelihood of Trump making false statements to investigators.
“You are in a situation where the president has some difficulty with precision,” Biden told CNN's Chris Cuomo on Tuesday. “One of the things I would worry about if I was his lawyer is him saying something that was just simply not true without him even planning to be disingenuous.”
Trump has publicly said he is willing to talk to Mueller, but his lawyers have advised him not to meet with the special prosecutor for fear that he might be charged with lying to investigators, The New York Times reported Monday.
