NO ONE got fired. NO ONE destroyed evidence. NO ONE refused to cooperate. NO ONE shut down the investigation NO ONE chose not to release the entire report. NO ONE exercised executive privilege.
Page 173 V I: Ultimately, the investigation did not establish that the Campaign coordinated or conspired with the Russian government in its election-interference activities.
Barr: Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and I have concluded that the evidence developed during the Special Counsel's investigation is not sufficient to establish that the President committed an obstruction-of-justice offense.
Even if McGhan had to lock Trump in a closet to keep him from firing Mullet—it would still be a weak obstruction case—because Mullet was never fired and the investigation was never obstructed by Trump. Just the opposite it in fact. Trump waived executive privilege; allowed WH counsel to be interviewed [that took balls, btw] *when he didn’t have to* and etc. A jury would get to hear every bit of that, including whatever exculpatory evidence that would be revealed in discovery.
Prosecutors don’t pad their stats by trotting off to court with weak obstruction cases. Federal prosecutors have nearly a 90% conviction rate *precisely because they don’t* march off to court, half-cocked, just because they really-really bad want to convict a person of a crime. Which is the Democrats problem: they really-really bad want to indict Trump to the extent they’re absolutely unable to think clearly about it. That kind of visceral emotion clouds ones thinking.
Always lol. It’s pointless trying to explain that to these nitwits.
Mullet didn’t have that problem. Mullet may be a weasel but he’s a professional weasel. The ‘not not guilty’ bit was done solely for the benefit of House Democrats and their dreams of impeaching the Bad Orange Man, finally. Mullet knew there was no there-there, but he refused to concede that; and in so doing, proving once and for all that the whole point to the Russian investigation was to get rid of Trump.
And they think we’re too stupid to see that.
Coup has started. First of many steps. Impeachment will follow ultimately~WB attorney Mark Zaid, January 2017
