The Sit Down

One of the current headlines in the news is about whether President Trump will agree to a sit-down  with Mueller's team.  This means he will meet with a bunch of lawyers out to get him and he comes with a bunch of lawyers trying to save him.  Oh, well.  The point here is such a meeting once upon a time was called an interview or a deposition.  Not no more, baby!  Mafia movies have so infiltrated out culture, we are using language from them.  In such flicks, a sit-down was when one party had a grievance against another, and permission from the mob bosses was needed before the administration of a redress, i.e. a hit.  Or is it because much of our public has no concept of what a deposition means.  As a nation of the intelligent, we are rapidly losing it. What's next?  A subpoena for a sit-down ?  (The law meets the mafia?)  Funny.
