Fourth, if we had confidence after a thorough investigation of the facts that the President
clearly did not commit obstruction of justice, we would so state. Based on the facts and the
applicable legal standards, however, we are unable to reach that judgment. The evidence we
obtained about the President's actions and intent presents difficult issues that prevent us from
conclusively determining that no criminal conduct occurred. Accordingly, while this report does
not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.
There is too much deliberation about the OFFICE and not the man.
...The evidence we obtained about the President's actions and intent...
I knew what his intent was without ever talking to anyone. I knew his intent the moment the Russians arrived at the gate to the White House. He had fired Comey. There was no official invite to the Russian delegation, except, what Trump decided in conversation with the Russians. How much evidence does a prosecutor need to know something very wrong has occurred here? That lousy opinion has the DOJ and DOD tied in knots. I think this deliberation by Mueller is ridiculous. There was no doubt Trump was serving another authority than that of the USA Constitution.
