Fox News urged viewers to read Robert Mueller’s report in its entirety on Tuesday, emphasizing that the special counsel did not exonerate President Donald Trump.
While covering the battle between House Democrats and the Justice Department over the Mueller report, Smith noted that the Russia investigation found multiple instances of potential obstruction on behalf of Trump, but that the special counsel followed DOJ guidelines in declining to prosecute the sitting president.
“Remember, in his 400-plus page report — that everyone in America should read, everyone — Robert Mueller laid out ten instances of apparent obstruction of justice, criminal obstruction of justice, potentially, by President Trump,” the Fox News anchor said. “The special counsel did not exonerate the president. They said if they could’ve they would’ve but they couldn’t so they didn’t.”
“Mueller explained that if he and his team had confidence that the president did not commit obstruction, they would have said so. He also said that under Justice Department guidelines, charging the president with a crime was never an option to him. He said the Constitution requires another process,” Smith continued, referring to Mueller’s suggestion that Congress take up his report.

How many times will the idiots spit out this stupidity?
'We didn't prove 100% he was innocent, so please keep speculating. We didn't have enough evidence to indict, but hey... Guilty until proven innocent!'

bottom line: Mueller could have recommended indictment. He did not. Done.

Wrong. First, that is a DOJ guideline. Second, Mueller was still able to recommend indictment... it simply would have been delayed until Trump was out of office under the guideline.
So you are incorrect. Mueller could have reached the conclusion if he felt he had the evidence.

No collusion and insufficient evidence to pursue obstruction.
Case closed...McConnell.

In America, no collusion and insufficient evidence to pursue obstruction means that, in the eyes of the law, you are innocent.
