Donald Trump told Robert Mueller 37 TIMES he did not recall key events, including the infamous 2016 meeting between Don Jr, Jared Kushner, Paul Manafort and a Russian lawyer who offered dirt on Hillary Clinton Donald Trump said he had no recollection of the infamous Trump Tower meeting He told special counsel Robert Mueller he couldn't recall something 37 times Mueller shared his frustration at the President's written responses in his report By Danyal Hussain For Mailonline Published: 10:49 BST, 19 April 2019 | Updated: 18:16 BST, 19 April 2019 115 shares 243 Viewcomments Donald Trump claimed that he did not remember key events on 37 occasions during the Mueller probe, including the infamous June 2016 meeting between his campaign team and a Russian agent. Special counsel Robert Mueller's team described President Donald Trump's answers to questions as 'inadequate', after the written interview was revealed for the first time following the release of the report. Mueller questioned the president on his knowledge of the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting, Russian hacking during the election, the Trump Organization's Moscow project and contacts with Russia during the 2016 election and subsequent transition. The special counsel's bombshell 448-page report into collusion between Trump and Russia was released on Thursday. The Mueller Report states that the meeting between Russian Natalia Veselnitskaya and members of the Trump campaign was illegal (l to r: Donald Trump, Don Jr and Jared Kushner above in 2009) However, Donald Trump claimed that he had no recollection of the meeting between his team and the Russian lawyer Trump wrote that he had 'no recollection of learning at the time' about the infamous meeting between Donald Trump Jr, Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort, who met with Natalia Veselnitskaya, believed to be an agent working on behalf of the Russian government. The Russians reportedly offered the Trump campaign team dirt on Hillary Clinton during the 2016 meeting. And that wasn't the only thing he claimed no knowledge of as he said that he didn't remember or recall an event on 37 instances when asked by Mueller. The special counsel wrote in his report that he found other answers from the president to be 'incomplete or imprecise'. Trump once claimed to have one of the 'great memories of all time'. Mueller also considered issuing a subpoena for Trump to get a face-to-face interview but decided against it because it would have further delayed the report's publication. Robert Mueller wrote in his report that he found answers from the president to be 'incomplete or imprecise' President Trump celebrated Barr's press conference with a tweet inspired by Game of Thrones Special Counsel Robert Mueller did not accuse President Trump of crimes, however, he did paint an unflattering portrait of a foul-mouthed executive who believed the Russia probe would lead to his demise 'We determined that the substantial quantity of information we had obtained from other sources allowed us to draw relevant factual conclusions on intent and credibility,' the special counsel wrote. From December 2017, Mueller tried to interview Trump for more than a year considering his answers to be 'vital' for determining links between the Trump campaign and Russia. However, the president's personal lawyers believed that allowing him to sit for an interview would have resulted in a 'perjury trap.' Mueller then made it clear in his report that he was unhappy with the written interview, saying Trump's answers 'demonstrate the inadequacy of the written format, as we have had no opportunity to ask follow-up questions that would ensure complete answers and potentially refresh your client's recollection.'
