Mark Levin: Mueller team didn't subpoena Trump because they could 'smear him' without it

Conservative commentator Mark Levin accused special counsel Robert Mueller of forgoing a subpoena to compel President Trump to testify in the Russia investigation in an effort to “smear” the president.

Mueller wrote in his nearly 450-page report that his team considered subpoenaing the president for an in-person interview but ultimately decided to rely on written answers so as not to prolong the investigation or drive up the costs with a potentially lengthy legal battle. As seen in his report, released with redactions on Thursday, Mueller considered Trump’s written answers “inadequate.”
