That was one of a couple of lines that I found troubling. Mueller sounded like he wanted to get the President but could not. When you look for evidence of a crime and find none, you simply say so. He also found no proof that the President obstructed justice. He should have simply stated so, not what he said.

That boggles the mind.
Do you realize how much on the straight and narrow you have to run a campaign not to get nailed by a special prosecutor with all the powers and latitude they have? Just about any previous president would have been nailed, at least on a process crime, probably more, and candidate Clinton is a treasure trove of crime.
I’m not saying that Trump is naturally the straightest arrow in the quiver, but he knew the bullseye target was on his own back. Remember when the media mocked him for saying they had him wiretapped?
Mueller wanted him bad. He didn’t even have to be a partisan leading an angry horde of dem lawyers to want it. When you’re set up as special council and the media spotlight is on you for two years, you want to produce something.
The real sham of it as was that Trump was the target, not Russia. Everyone seems to gloss over this very important point. It was all politics.
