If you have trouble comprehending what you read in a simple forum post, how the hell could anyone expect you to write a credible response. You blew it in one sentence.
In Volume 1 (Collusion) of his report, Mueller states clearly that not Trump, nor any member of his family, his campaign staff, his t***sition team, his WH staff, nor any American citizen whatsoever colluded with any Russian entity. That stands as a complete exoneration of the original allegation.
If Mueller was a principled man, a dedicated prosecutor with the integrity to find the facts in a case, he would have ended the investigation when he found no evidence regarding the original mandate that launched the investigation in the first place. Why then did he press on and pursue an entirely new charge that was not even mentioned in the original mandate?
Regarding the charge of obstruction of justice as suggested in Volume 2, again the investigation failed to find sufficient evidence to file such a charge. So what then is Volume 2. First, it is not a legal document, it is a political one. In Volume 2, no case pertinent criminal law is cited, therefore no specific charges are filed.
President Trump gave Mueller everything he asked for, including 1.4 million documents (not pages, documents), he allowed Mueller free access to any member of his staff, including his chief of staff and his attorneys. Trump waived executive privilege and even attorney/client privilege. Moreover, to think about obstructing an investigation, discuss it, conspire, plan or even issue orders that would result in obstruction is not a crime if no action whatsoever was taken.
Put simply, you could think about, dream about, talk about, or conspire to k**l someone you h**e, but you cannot be charged with murder if you or your fellow conspirators never k**led anyone.
It is telling that WH counsel McGahn was under Mueller's hot lights for 30 hours (almost a work week), yet that critical interrogation is given a paragraph or two in Volume 2. That begs the question, what did McGahn tell the investigators in 30 hours of grilling? Could it be that he told them a truckload of things they didn't want to hear?
In reality, the criminal conspiracy in this case is the attempt to o*******w a p**********l e******n, to destroy a duly elected president, his presidency, his family and anyone associated with any of them. This entire sordid affair is the worst political scandal in American history bar none. Should this wicked thing succeed, it would disenfranchise 63 million plus v**ers and would constitute the greatest act of v**er suppression surpassed only in the Soviet Union.
