will heal won't he slessor prosecutor robert muller floats the idea of subpoenaing president trump what's the likelihood of that we're going to take a look at that on this edition. of politicking on larry king it's happened before once to president nixon and then to president bill clinton talking about a court order of the sitting chief executive to comply with a subpoena from investigators is going to happen again this time to donald trump for his testimony in the ongoing russian probe led by special counsel robert muller is it going to happen one of the legal and political consequences for the administration should the president since we're an interview with muller's team let's talk about that with bob driscoll the deputy assistant attorney general appointed during the george w. bush administration currently practicing law he joins us from washington what's the process or lower the involved of the subpoena of trump. it's hard to say at this point because i think that the president is reluctant to sit down but by the santo can be reluctant to receive a subpoena because that if the specia
