The Mueller Report Part 2 - Russian Social Media Campaign

Volume II of the report addresses obstruction of justice. The investigation intentionally took an approach that could not result in a judgment that Trump committed a crime. The Mueller team refrained from making a judgment about whether to criminally charge Trump because investigators abided by an Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) opinion that a sitting president cannot stand trial, and feared that charges would affect Trump's governing and possibly preempt his impeachment. Consistent with standing DOJ policy, investigators felt it would be unfair to accuse Trump of a crime without charges and without a trial in which he could clear his name. As such, the investigation "does not conclude that the President committed a crime"; however, "it also does not exonerate him", as investigators were not confident that Trump was innocent after examining his intent and actions. The report describes ten notable episodes where Trump could have obstructed justice while president and one before he was elected, noting that he privately tried to "control the investigation" in multiple ways, but mostly failed to influence it because his subordinates or associates refused to carry out his instructions.The report further states that Congress can decide whether Trump obstructed justice, as Congress has the authority to take action against a president for wrongdoing, in reference to potential impeachment proceedings.
