Since the only "wrongdoing" was Flynn's allegedly lying to the FBI, and that wasn't concealed, nor was Flynn instructed to do it, there's nothing to obstruct.

The president has the Constitutional power to stop any investigation that is occurring within the executive branch, for whatever reason. It would be unconstitutional to impeach a president who is simply exercising his Constitutional power.
No, not really. It's the Constitutional defense.
I believe Nixon was accused of obstruction of justice.
Trump needs a better lawyer.
Trump’s ability to make statements to the public via Twitter comes from the First Amendment.
Trump needs a better lawyer.
Yep. He’s been wrong a bunch already.
“the tweet immediately raised questions about when Trump knew about Flynn’s lying”
The tweet is probably merely another example of Donald Trump’s defective memory, as any serious reader of the Washington Post knows.
Trump’s memory recall process assumes that he said or did what he should have said or did and not what he actually said or did. It how people with defective recall systems sometimes function. Trump is about 70 years of age. It is a sign of senility.
This will be going on for the next 7 years. Get used to it.
“I’m so sick of the constant war against our President. These people...”
Those people demanded vehemently before the election that we and Trump accept the results of the vote but refuse to do so themselves.
I’ll take Trump’s lousy memory over their lousy behavior come the next election.
Considering the fate of Flynn and Martha Stewart, I think it is best that Trump follow the practice of major corporations on not commenting on ongoing investigations or lawsuits.
If they try to impeach Trump, it may end in Civil War and lawlessness. Pray it will not come to that point. But if it should, the sheeple will be scattered to the wind. But hopefully, the many millions who are prepared will survive and overcome the evil that has befallen this nation.
Maybe there needs to be a commission appointed to oversee the present commission and end it or keep it on track. They have found no evidence of collusion and no one has been charged with collusion so why are they wandering around into other areas.
Oh, please...
