Does trump* know a prosecutor rarely asks a question to which they don't already know the answer?

Or does he think he will be able to weasel his way though this with his his self-perceived wit and cagey lies, to get him through a Mueller interview?

He has absolutely no clue of how the judicial branch works...

He has absolutely no clue of how he eases Mueller's job each time he tweets or opens it..

There is absolutely no necessity to say it too loudly or warns him...

He's always relied on wriggling out before it's put to the test, and has only really faced it once or twice. And those just cost him money, not jail time.

I can see him going off on a red-faced screed that no power on earth may be able to stop.

He has proven he has no idea how a bill becomes a law. He has demonstrated he does not understand democracy. He has made it clear he has no idea how to be a president.

If he cannot weasel his way out, he will intimidate until his problem goes away. That is how he has acted his entire life. He's not going to change at this stage of his life.
