This seems to be the reality as reported by government enquiries, and more reality-based independent journalists not just running with 'whatever wind of teaching' the White House fan club reports.
EG: Here's some data the "Western Journal" would not really bother with. It's the Mueller Report - and I bet this would send the Western Journal into excessive "magic handwaving syndrome"!
While the report concludes that the investigation "did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities",
[4][5][6] investigators had an incomplete picture of what happened due in part to some communications that were encrypted, deleted, or not saved, as well as testimony that was false, incomplete, or declined.
[7][8][9] The report states that Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election was illegal and occurred "in sweeping and systematic fashion",
[10][11][12] and was welcomed by the Trump campaign as it expected to benefit from such efforts.
[13][14][15] It also identified multiple
links between Trump associates and Russian officials and spies,
[16] about which several persons connected to the campaign
made false statements and obstructed investigations.
[4] Mueller later stated that his investigation's findings of Russian interference "deserves the attention of every American".

Volume II of the report addresses obstruction of justice. The investigation intentionally took an approach that could not result in a judgment that Trump committed a crime.
[18][19][20] This decision was based on an
Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) opinion that
a sitting president is immune from criminal prosecution,
[21][22][23] and Mueller's belief that it would be unfair to accuse the president of a crime even without charging him because he would have no opportunity to clear his name in court; furthermore it would undermine Trump's ability to govern and preempt
impeachment.
[19][22][24][21][25] As such, the investigation "does not conclude that the President committed a crime"; however, "it also does not exonerate him",
[26][27] with investigators not confident of Trump's innocence.
[28][29][30][31] The report describes ten episodes where Trump may have obstructed justice while president and one before he was elected,
[32][33] noting that he privately tried to "control the investigation".
[34][35][36] The report further states that Congress can decide whether Trump obstructed justice and take action accordingly,
[19][37][38] referencing impeachment.
