Donald Trumps lawyer Rudy Giuliani asserted Thursday that the president will refuse to sit down with special counsel Robert Mueller for an interview unless Trump and his team are allowed to view documents pertaining to the FBI's use of an informant to contact members of his campaign.

In an interview with The Associated Press, Giuliani said that the Justice Department's offer to hold a briefing for members of Congress about the informant and his contacts with the Trump campaign was insufficient for the president's legal team.

“That will not change,” Giuliani said of the demand to view the documents. “We are not going to budge.”

“We want to see the documents — this matters far more to my client than to any member of Congress," he added.Donald Trumps

Trump's allies hope the documents pertaining to the informant will prove Trump's claims that former President Obama spied on his campaign for the purpose of aiding Hillary Clinton.

The president has repeatedly suggested without evidence that the FBI's use of an informant amounted to a "spy" on his campaign, and that the investigation into his campaign's alleged ties to Russia is nothing more than a politically-motivated scheme started by the Obama administration.

1. Trump won't bet until the other players show him their cards.

That ain’t the way it works Donnie.

2. Yepper, spot on

[pecosbob]

3. He must get paid on a sliding rate that goes up the more preposterous the demand

What are we averaging now like three ludicrous demands and three retracted or respun statements per week from this clown?

4. If he did find the informant's identity

my bet is the informant would face an unusual and untimely denise

5. That's all they are looking for..........................some form of deflection

8. The informant has been known for a few weeks now.

Stefan A. Halper is an American foreign policy scholar at the University of Cambridge.

6. Would someone please tell this poor, stupid bastard....

that they don't get to set the conditions of their interview with Mueller? Who do these assholes think they're dealing with, Don Jr?

7. So now (1) Trump has to know the answers first, and (2) Mueller has to wrap it up in two months.

Any other conditions, Rudy? Maybe Donnie Two Scoops wants a backrub and a blowjob?

Go suck yourself, Goo-goo -- the witness doesn't get to set the terms of his testimony. But you knew that already, didn't you? You're just playing to the base, so they'll be able to blow off Mueller's findings no matter how much evidence there is to support them.
