Trump says what ex-White House lawyer Don McGahn told Mueller 'doesn't matter'
President Donald Trump is directly disputing the account of a key witness in special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into possible obstruction of justice during the course of the Russia probe saying that it"doesn't matter" what his former White House counsel Don McGahn testified.
At the president’s instruction McGahn is currently fighting a subpoena from the House Judiciary Committee to testify publicly about those conversations with Trump, among other things. McGahn spent nearly 30 hours with the special counsel’s investigators testifying under oath and was one of most quoted aides to the president to appear in the report.
"If you answer these questions to me now," Stephanopoulos asked,"why not answer them to Robert Mueller under oath?" "George, you're being a little wise guy, OK -- which is, you know, typical for you," Trump shot back."Just so you understand. Very simple. It's very simple. There was no crime. There was no collusion. The big thing's collusion. Now, there's no collusion. That means they set -- it was a setup, in my opinion, and I think it's going to come out."
