Trump Lawyer Ty Cobb: POTUS Is Eager To Interview With Mueller, But I Hope It’s Not A “Mere Perjury Trap”

Mediaite reports:

CBS has released a preview of their extensive interview with Ty Cobb, a lawyer for President Donald Trump. And in it, the president’s counsel went on record as saying his client is quite willing to give an interview to special counsel Robert Mueller.

Speaking with CBS White House correspondent Major Garrett on The Takeout‘s upcoming podcast, Cobb said Trump is “very eager” to meet with investigators and “put the matter to rest.” No formal requests have come in from the special counsel yet, though Cobb said there are “active discussions” regarding a Trump interview.

Cobb: “I would hope that a fair minded office of the special counsel would approach it in a dutiful way consistent with precedent and it wouldn’t be a mere perjury trap.”
