No, that's not how prosecution works. Mueller did not find sufficient grounds to charge with conspiracy. That doesn't mean there was "no evidence" of a conspiracy, nor does it mean there wasn't abundant evidence of unsavory and improper contact. Again, assistance was offered and accepted. Your head would be exploding, if it was a Dem. And.....obstruction does not require the underlying crime to even exist or be successfully prosecuted.

Doesn't something even have to be true in order for "obstruction" to occur? So Mueller was investigating how Trump ''colluded" to steal votes from Hillary, but simply couldn't figure out how he did it, (or at least couldn't find the evidence) but he sure as sh*t obstructed the investigation into how he did what he actually didn't do! :confused:

You're psychotic.

Translation: You can charge a crime with no evidence? :eek: What other "grounds" comprise evidence???????o_O

Read that twice, and see if it's English...then read it a third time and realize someone with a College education and a degree actually typed it. Read it a 4th time and understand the OP actually believes it! [eyeroll]

Well according to @JWBinDC , you don't actually need hard evidence in order to charge a crime or even determine there's no evidence! In other words, just because you can't actually find evidence of a crime doesn't mean it's non existent or you didn't commit the crime. o_O

You can be guilty of a crime with no evidence. Just ask him.

We have the presumption of innocence. He is innocent of the crime he was investigated for. Period. Full stop.

I agree about obstruction. I just don’t care. You all set the table at collusion. You were told Collusion wasn’t a crime. You all changed to conspiracy. He is innocent of conspiracy. I don’t care about obstruction as nothing he did actually negatively impacted the investigation. Mueller was provided everything he asked for and everyone he wanted to talk to. Executive privilege wasn’t even invoked.

Mueller didn’t have enough evidence to warrant a sit down with the President.

Game over. Enjoy the politicized attempts at impeachment. That is, while the left scrambles for cover in the coming weeks and months as this sham is torn to bits, brick by brick.

Ever wonder why the NYT hasn’t released the full unredacted FISA? They’ve had it for a while. Not to worry, answers are forthcoming.

“A very exculpatory section of the Mueller Report: NO CONSPIRACY, COORDINATION or COLLUSION with the Trump Campaign and the Russians. You can’t be more clear than that!@GreggJarrett

Ah...but that's not what @JWBinDC says:
NO underlying crime is a necessary in order to engage in obstruction of justice

Mueller did not find sufficient grounds to charge with conspiracy. That doesn't mean there was "no evidence" of a conspiracy,

See....Lawyer Greg Jarrett is wrong....Laywer JWBinDC is correct! [eyeroll]

Lolz. You see what you want to see. I don't know how I allowed myself to get dragged into this cesspool section of the site. My bad.

What prosecutor in his right mind would charge someone with "no evidence" or even attempt a prosecution absent grounds for at least a charge based on a preponderance of some type of accusatory evidence? o_O

I mean I'm certainly not a Lawyer but do you also have to be just flat out stupid to even suggest such a thing? Maybe not. Just be like @JWBinDC [eyeroll]

Left has 1 course right now. Impeachment. It would be a purely political move. It could backfire bigly

I think they're calculating their chances with it even as we speak. I'm not one to encourage them to avoid self destruction.

Feel free to do the same with mine. I find it amusing the lengths trumpies will go to defend him for abhorrent behavior. Please proceed.
I already made my position statement which countered aspects and agreed with aspects. I’m waiting on your rebuttal. It’s kind of how a debate works.

Based on what you do for a living, I know you have filled out paperwork to gain a clearance. You know they differentiate between you being found not guilty and not being found guilty of a crime. So an 18-year old enlistee has to live up to a higher standard than POTUS?

Having said that, I'm fine with Congress looking into the report and deciding how to proceed. I also think that impeachment would be a fool's move. First, the Senate will not vote to remove him from office. They just won't. Second, the process plays perfectly into Trump's cries about how he's a victim of pretty much everyone and everything. It helps him politically moving forward.

I agree 100% with this. Impeachment at its core is a "political" process. Democrats are trying to use it as a "criminal" procedure to get rid of Trump which is a "political" objective. If they were truly interested in upholding the Law, they'd immediately re-open Hillary's use of that illegal server and charge her with obstruction of Justice, sedition and or/treason as well as perjury to Congress.

But your analysis on them impeaching Trump is spot on.:eek:kay:

I honestly don’t understand the point you were trying to make in the first paragraph.

I think he is saying it's not fair that military members get charged for mishandling classified material when Hillary as Secretary of State had a non government server in her broom closet or he doesn't really understand how Security Clearances actually work ?
