But he stacked his team with Hillary supporters, some of whom donated to her campaign. And yet NONE of those lawyers could actually dig up the dirt they were commissioned to find. It simply didn't happen.Mueller is a conservative republican. You didn't know?
Doesn't change the fact that no obstruction was done and not only that, but Trump did not keep anything hidden and called for the complete report to be released. In his frustration, he called for Mueller to be fire, but cooler heads prevailed and they explained to him why they could not fire Mueller.And he's documented that Trump repeatedly tried to obstruct the investigation, failing only because even his people wouldn't do it for him.
But no crime was committed. That is also what the evidence points to. If Mueller and Co. could have made a case for obstruction, they would have done so.Mueller’s analysis of the evidence clearly points toward an attempt to obstruct justice in that circumstance.
And that is a good thing.He also suggests that Trump’s efforts fell short only because his subordinates repeatedly disobeyed his instructions.
He cannot be charged with any crime connected to firing James Comey. It was his prerogative to do so. He fired Comey because Comey assured him in private that he was not under investigation, but would not publicly state that the president was not under investigation. Comey allowed the public narrative that Trump was under investigation to continue, and that is why he was fired and rightly so.Some of the president’s allies in the legal world, including Rudy Giuliani and Alan Dershowitz, have argued that the president can’t be charged with obstruction of justice for acts related to the exercise of his constitutional powers. But the special counsel goes to unusual lengths to rebut that analysis. The report closes with 23 pages devoted to explaining that presidents can indeed commit obstruction of justice under current federal law.
