On "The Story," Judge Napolitano said any of those options would be a bad idea for the president because he cannot know what Mueller's team knows and what evidence they already have. "One lie or one close-to-a-lie about a material matter and he's facing a potential indictment," he explained.
He said that FBI investigators are "very, very good" at trapping people, and Trump should avoid falling into such a trap by declining to submit to an interview, which he is legally entitled to do.
I sort of resent the use of the term "trapping people" when it comes to our interviews. A good investigative interviewer knows the answers to the vast majority of the questions being asked. If the subject fails to tell the truth that's THEIR problem. I ask you X, and I know the answer is Y, and you answer Z. Well, you're potentially on the hook for a 1001 charge. I will then use that against you in an effort to get you to tell the truth, and you deal with the consequences... or you can stick to your guns and deal with a whole other set of consequences.
My guess is that I've definitively known the answers to 75-90% of questions that I asked during subject interviews. We do our homework. The person being interviewed most often thinks they are there to tell us the who, what, where, why, and hows but they're really there to either confess or lie to us. Either hammer eventually works.
