People are confused...as mueller stated he couldn’t find sufficient evidence of obstruction BUT couldn’t fully exonerate Trump with that part of the investigation.
So again, Mueller fully exonerated Trump and the administration of collusion with Russia. (Nothing burger) but couldn’t fully exonerate Trump on obstruction. At the same time no recommendation for charges.
Yet it seems while Biden was VP his son was participating with an oligarchy and Moscow mayor in activities which seem extremely corrupt. But that’s fine because he is a citizen with access to both the state department and the executive branch.

LOL, what's sad is you know this isn't true.

The former special counsel Robert Mueller went into detail Wednesday about why he didn't make a decision on whether to charge President Donald Trump with obstruction of justice.
Mueller pointed to three factors that he said impeded prosecutors from making a decision on the obstruction case.
The first is a 1973 decision by the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel stating that a sitting president cannot be indicted. For that reason, Mueller said, charging Trump with a federal crime "is unconstitutional."
He also said it would be "unfair" to even suggest Trump had committed a crime, because it would deprive him of the opportunity to defend himself in a court of law.
And he said filing a sealed indictment was not an option because of the 1973 DOJ policy, and because there was a risk that it could leak.
"Charging the President with a crime was therefore not an option we could consider," Mueller said.
But the former special counsel emphasized that if prosecutors had confidence that Trump did not commit a crime, they would have said so. He also implied that it is up to Congress to potentially pursue impeachment proceedings against Trump.]
