Subpoena Power
Giuliani had said that Trump could refuse to acknowledge a subpoena from Mueller.
However some experts said this wasn’t true and Trump despite being the President would have to honor the call to testify.
“We don’t have to,” Giuliani said on ABC’s “This Week” when asked if Trump would cooperate if Mueller subpoenas him. “He’s the President of the United States. We can assert the same privilege as other Presidents have.”
“No one is above the law,” said New York Law School professor Rebecca Roiphe.
“It’s not accurate to say that sitting Presidents never have to comply with subpoenas. They have and they do,” Lisa Griffin said.
Bill Clinton had to testify after he was accused of having sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky.
If Mueller had to subpoena Trump then we would know for sure if he would have to comply or not.
