Let him. Everything we don't know about the investigation would come out in the trial. Andy maybe even information trump would not like released. Trump suggests he may sue over Mueller investigation
President Trump on Tuesday suggested he may file lawsuits over the outcome of former special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation, saying its findings are "badly tainted." The president in a series of tweets also made multiple misleading claims about Mueller and his investigation as he again lashed out over the trial of longtime associate Roger Stone, who is scheduled to be sentenced this week in a case stemming from the former special counsel's probe. "Everything having to do with this fraudulent investigation is badly tainted and, in my opinion, should be thrown out," Trump tweeted. "The whole deal was a total SCAM. If I wasn't President, I'd be suing everyone all over the place," he added. "BUT MAYBE I STILL WILL. WITCH HUNT!" Article here: Trump suggests he may sue over Mueller investigation |

If he sued, couldn't he be deposed under oath, and forced to testify if it went to trial?

There are a lot of stages one has to go through to get to depositions. Trump always used lawsuits to bully people. He has no reason to believe he can't continue to do it. I don't think he realizes the government has piles of inhouse lawyers that aren't paid an hourly rate, unlike his civilian victims. |

I hope to live long enough to finally reach the day when Trump just shuts the fuck up once and for all and stops despoiling American life with his 'droppings'.

He threatened to sue in a tweet.
He pulls this stuff all the time. He is almost always lying.

GOP: We are so sick of all of these investigations. We need to all these people to do their real jobs and stop wasting time on this stuff.
Trump: I'm going to sue and spend the next 2 years of my presidency talking about the investigation and have all the people in the government focus on it.
GOP: What a great idea!
