Mueller Team to Interview Nunberg Thursday Source Says
Why Mueller Is Seen as the Perfect Man for  the Job
Former Donald Trump political adviser Sam Nunberg  will be interviewed by the special counsel investigating Russian meddling in the 2016 election on Thursday  a person familiar with the matter said.
 Nunberg  will meet with a member of Special Counsel Robert Muellerâs team in Washington  said the person  who spoke on condition of anonymity. Itâs not clear what Mueller wants to speak with him about. Muellerâs office has informed him that heâs not a target of the probe and wonât be prosecuted unless heâs found to have lied to investigators  the person said.
 Nunberg  was on Trumpâs payroll from mid-2011 to August 2015. A possible line of questioning could regard Trumpâs activities in Moscow during the 2013 Miss Universe pageant that the president once owned.
 Nunberg  was fired from Trumpâs campaign in August 2015 after Business Insider published a story about  his  racially-charged Facebook posts. In July 2016   Trump  sued  him  for violating a confidentiality agreement. The suit was dropped the following month.
Author Michael Wolff repeatedly quoted  Nunberg  in âFire and Fury â his portrait of the early months of the  Trump  administration that was published in January. He said the former adviser was âgenerally regarded as the man who understood Trumpâs whims and impulses bestâ and an associate of Trumpâs former strategist  Steve Bannon. Muellerâs team interviewed Bannon earlier this month.
