Mueller sent Trump written questions. So far, answered but not submitted.

[Cyrano]

Soooo, we're supposed to buy this shit from the White House.

I really don't know why Mueller submitted written questions. He knows it's just a waste and he doesn't really expect any meaningful answers to whatever it was that he asked.

Here's my personal guess as to some of the questions and the "unsubmitted" answers:

1. Q: Age? A: Yes.

2. Q: Will you submit your tax returns to us? A: After the ongoing audit thing.

.
.
.

14. Q: Were any Russians involved in your 2016 campaign? A: Many, many people work for me.

.
.
.

22. Q: Have any Russians purchased your properties for far over market value? A: Prices vary.

.
.
.

103. Q: Do you swear that your answers to all questions are true and accurate? A: You bet.

Sigh. Sending written questions to Trump and expecting any sort of meaningful answers is the equivalent of asking Jerry Falwell Jr. (or perhaps Pinocchio) to confirm the validity of the answers.

Why, oh why would Mueller waste the price of the ink it took to print the questions?

They're keeping an eye on Deadbeat Donny and his access to sharp objects.

2. Giving him the written questions was a mistake.

He thinks he can stall and stall.
