CNN reports:
Jay Sekulow, an attorney for President Donald Trump, said Monday he does not want the written answers the President submitted to special counsel Robert Mueller to be released, describing them as “confidential.”
“Well, that would not be a position that I would want, to just make a statement where we would release confidential communications that took place between the President of the United States and the Department of Justice or the special counsel’s office,” Sekulow told CNN’s Alisyn Camerota on “New Day.”
Sekulow continued, “As a lawyer, you don’t waive privileges and you don’t waive investigative detail absent either a court order or an agreement between the parties. And you’d have to weigh a lot of factors there on how that affects other presidencies.”
As you can see below, this morning Sekulow was dispatched to spike the ball on every network.
“As a lawyer, you don’t wave privileges … I think that would be very inappropriate.”
