So if I read this right…this country is either Ever Trumpers or Never Trumpers. And don’t ever stand against the man…even when the law is at stake? Just amazing.
Has nothing to do with me. How many thousands of former prosecutors didn’t sign the statement. No doubt Trump haters believe there is only one side to this story, but that really isn’t the case at all.
Not really, given that Mueller himself made it clear that Trump being president wasn’t a factor in his decision not to indict. He told Barr that there simply wasn’t enough evidence.
That is so wrong, and it’s been pointed out to you numerous times. Mueller didn’t indict because of a policy that a sitting president can not be indicted.
Just because anti-Trump forum members point something out to me doesn’t make it true.
From the Fox News article.
During a hearing on Capitol Hill last week, Attorney General Bill Barr testified that Mueller "reiterated several times in a group meeting that he was not saying that but for the [Office of Legal Counsel] opinion he would have found obstruction.
No he didn’t say he WOULD have found obstruction, he said he did not make the judgement because of the policy that the pres. couldn’t be indicted. He laid out the path for congress to decide.

The Office of Legal Counsel opinion is what you are referring to. There is nothing explicitly stating a President can’t legally be indicted. It is an “Office of Legal Counsel” opinion.
Mueller stated that wasn’t the reason he didn’t find for obstruction.
I can only surmise that they didn’t feel strongly enough about it to do something like this. Probably because it is not as egregious as ten attempts to obstruct justice in the biggest investigation yet this century.
