Justified112 denies anyone said that Trump did nothing wrong:

What I said was that we do not believe he committed any crimes.
Well, let's take a look. You wrote...

We never said he did nothing wrong.
I just gave you two examples. Would you like to see them again?
He listed several examples of Trump attempting to obstruct the investigation. He's merely following DOJ opinion that a sitting president can't be indicted.
He did. It's in the report. No point in denying the fact.
No, that's not what you said. You said that there was nothing that warranted more indictments. But that's yet to be determined.
That is what I said, but you don't have the honesty or integrity to handle my words correctly.
I don't lie because (among other things) I don't have a very good memory. I wish everyone followed that practice.
Moot point if it's true. Flynn now admits that he did lie to them.
They were investigated and no crimes were found.
There are 12 investigations of Trump and his family/associates still ongoing.

What is your first-blush takeaway on the matter of obstruction of justice as laid out in the report?
There are some extraordinary revelations. The first is that Mueller’s decision not to reach traditional prosecutorial judgment regarding obstruction of justice was due to the fact that he was prevented under Department of Justice policy from charging the president while he’s in office.

[redirected generic snark]But when it comes to Trump loyalists, it isn't about getting to the truth. It is about making Trump innocent at any cost. If the law gets him on evidence, they will make him innocent if it's the last thing they do. It's a taste of the kind of soviet-style police state we have in the Trump administration.[/redirected generic snark]
Ah yes, I was wondering when this immature, childish nonsense would surface again. This is the garbage you resort to when an intelligent, adult response is out of your reach.
Actually, it's your words, with different names plugged in. And yes, your words are indeed "immature childish nonsense." But you can't see it when you do it. Everyone else sees it, though. You're wising up, now.
I will make this really, really simple for you. We don't have to make him innocent. He is presumed innocent under our system of jurisprudence.
Yep. And he'll get his day in court when he leaves office. But the evidence that he attempted to obstruct the investigation is all laid out in the report.
We are not making him guilty.
No one made him do it. Indeed, his own people refused to do what he ordered them to do. But as you learned, merely attempting to obstruct is a crime.
We are holding up the factd that he is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
The standard for conviction is much stricter than the standard for realizing what he did. That's why Mueller pointed out the times he attempted to obstruct the investigation. When he leaves office, it will be important to have this documentation.
YOU are operating from a Stalinist, anti-American system of justice that looks for a crime and then tries to make someone guilty of it.
You're a little confused. I didn't document those attempts. Mueller did. And he specifically avoided indicting Trump, because the DOJ stand is that a sitting president can't be indicted. So we'll have to wait until he leaves office to get those resolved.
