"Well then the third explanation... I can think of is that... you didn't think you needed it. And in fact, what caught my eye was page 13 of Volume 2, where you said, in fact, you had a substantial body of evidence, and you sight a bunch of cases there... about how you often have to prove intent to obstruct justice without an in-person interview. That's the kind of nature of it, and you used terms like a substantial body of evidence, significant evidence, of the president's intent. So, my question sir is, did you have sufficient evidence of the president's intent to obstruct justice, and is that why you didn't do the interview?"

Maloney, 2:16:26 — No, there's a balance. In other words, how much evidence you have that will satisfy the last element, against how much time are you willing to spend in the courts litigating... the interview with the president. — Mueller
