Attorney General Barr has written a summary of the Special Counsel’s report. His summary says that the Special Counsel found that no member of the Trump Campaign or associates criminally conspired or coordinated with Russia in their effort. Regarding Obstruction of Justice, the Special Counsel did not draw a conclusion. The report sets out evidence on both sides of the issue and leaves unresolved what the Special Counsel views as difficult issues of law and fact. The report does not conclude that the President committed a federal crime and it does not exonerate him either.

Honestly I’m not not surprised. We’ve seen public evidence of attempted collusion with the Trump Tower meeting, Paul Manafort giving internal polling data to Konstantin Kilimnik, Roger Stone’s communications with WikiLeaks and Guccifer 2.0 but none of that rises to Criminal Conspiracy. With obstruction there has to be evidence and corrupt intent so again difficult to prove. With Trump it hasn’t been like when Bill Clinton perjured himself by lying to a Grand Jury which showed intent to obstruct. It’s all been rather hit and miss with the man-child.

I do want to see the full report or as much of it that can be publicly released because that way we’ll know 100%. Let’s also see what the other countless investigations are going to find, in particular SDNY.
