As Ari Melber reported:
According to The New York Times:
He also said he would be willing to answer questions under oath, but not until after asking whether Hillary Clinton, his 2016 campaign rival, has spoken under oath to the F.B.I. in the investigation into her use of a private email server while she served as secretary of state. Mrs. Clinton gave a voluntary interview to investigators in July 2016.

Trump combination of arrogance and stupidity is going to destroy him, as the president is walking into a trap of his own creation, and there is nowhere for him to go, but down.
