Yes, President Trump committed obstruction. From the moment he defeated Hillary Clinton, Democrats have tried to overturn the 2016 election, but Trump has obstructed their efforts every step of the way. This was obstruction in the interests of justice.
The president should be applauded for it. First, partisans within the Justice Department spied on the Trump presidential campaign. They used a mainstream news article to obtain a warrant to surveil Trumps campaign staff by misleading a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court judge about the source of the article.
In fact, the news story was based on unverified opposition research funded by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee. Recently uncovered text messages between disgraced FBI agent Peter Strzok and FBI lawyer Lisa Page suggest this surveillance continued after the election, shifting its focus from the Trump campaign to the transition team of then-President-elect Trump.
Then, according to fired FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, several Justice Department and FBI officials discussed staging what would have amounted to a coup to oust the duly elected president of the United States from office. The coup would have been staged by invoking the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump from office.
