Mueller schedules interview with Hope Hicks
The White House communications director is due to speak with prosecutors in the Russia probe after Trump returns from his Asia trip.

President Donald Trump’s longtime aide and current communications director, Hope Hicks, is scheduled to speak with special counsel Robert Mueller’s team in mid-November, following the president’s trip to Asia, multiple people familiar with the schedule told POLITICO.

Mueller’s team is also expected to interview three or four other current White House officials as early as this week, according to an administration official.

Mueller’s team already has interviewed former aides, including Trump’s first chief of staff, Reince Priebus, and former press secretary Sean Spicer. But the latest round of interviews appears to mark a new phase of the investigation — hauling in current administration officials for daylong depositions.

1. Can you imagine having to fly all that way, service Trump,

Fly all the way back, and THEN you've got to get a grilling from Mueller's team.....I hope it was worth it, Hope !

[workinclasszero]

3. She better have her story straight

She may have talked to multiple wired up folks working for Mueller.

[gratuitous]

9. And she doesn't know what Mueller and his team already know

I anticipate a lot of "I don't recall at this time" non-answers from Hicks.

12. "I don't recall the last six months of my life Mr FBI agent"

I don't think that's gonna cut it for Mueller, just call me crazy.

[hlthe2b]

2. I'd bet she knows a lot as she's been with the Trumps a long time.

Unless she has a good lawyer, I'd bet her arrogance may get her in big trouble.

[lindysalsagal]

21. Recently saw her on a list of his closest advisors. No idea about her, but we'll see.

Don't think a pr person can be held responsible for any actions: But may know stuff, if willing to share.

I guess you can't risk lying, anyway.

[GallopingGhost]

4. Hilarious how much

she looks like Melania.

[PRETZEL]

5. In other words,

put a big ole pair of sunglasses on, a long designer trench coat.......

Just sayin

[GallopingGhost]

8. lol

Trump doesn't really know her. She's just the covfefe girl.

[workinclasszero]

10. If the FBI interview goes bad

Trump won't remember her name.

[VOX]

14. Hahaha good one!

Thanks for that laugh. I’ve been stressing all day, but you got me to drop some of that ballast.

[workinclasszero]

16. We live in interesting times huh?

Take care

[VOX]

22. Truth.

You too!

[unblock]

6. the one person donnie doesn't have to worry about wearing a wire.

he's more worried about melania!

[lagomorph777]

7. Trump has a lot of hopeless hicks working for him.

Which one is this again?

Yeah, she knows where a LOT of bodies are buried, and she'd better guess correctly whether she's had any conversations with cooperating witnesses lately...

[workinclasszero]

11. Bingo!

What will she say?

[Not Ruth]

13. She has been with Trump since 2012

Ivanka first, day Trump a bit later.

She only graduated college in 2010.

So she has been Team Trump forever.

Which means that she knows everything.

[DoctorJoJo]

15. Did You Mean ....

.... "with" in the biblical context? LOL

[Pepsidog]

17. She better tell the truth or they will eat her for lunch

Experienced litigators like Mueller’s team eat people like Hope Hicks for lunch. My advice to her, come clean, no lies or evasions. This is like Lebron playing one-on-one with high school kid who sits the bench. She is not equipped to do anything but to tell the truth against a team of seasoned litigators. A good attorney will question a witness and take them down roads the witness has no idea their traveling. If she lies, she will drive herself over the cliff and into prison.

[workinclasszero]

18. That's good advise

Everyone connected with the orange shit gibbon better take it and get the hell off the USS Trumptanic while the gettin is good.

[red dog 1]

19. K&R

[wishstar]

20. I wonder if Trump will get a new attorney over Cobb, and then claim executive privilege

to somehow try and stop these interviews of WH staffers who know too much about his attempts at obstruction of justice
