    Obstruction of justice is a different accusation than collusion with Russians. The report states that there is insufficient evidence to prove collusion, but there may be a case to prove obstruction of justice if they decided to pursue it. But they aren’t going to. Which means absolutely nothing, at the end of the day. You can’t work with it, can’t assume anything or draw any conclusions. It’s not even a hypothesis let alone one that can be proven or not proven.

      Hmm, I see, I see… But, pray tell…

      WHAT JUSTICE WAS HE OBSTRUCTING?!

      The GOP logic seems to go like this.

      1. Get accused of crime.
      2. Illegally block investigation into the original crime.
      3. Because of your obstruction, insufficient evidence of your original crime is found to force prosecution.
      4. Now that you blocked the original charges, you can claim it was all bogus. You can’t “obstruct justice” if there was no crime in the first place, right?!

      So, obstruction of justice is legal now, so long as you succeed. Got it. Thanks.

      Also, fuck off. I’m not reading another reply. You are unwilling to discuss this topic in good faith, or you lack the brain cells to do so.
