Well, needless to say, liberals can't find any place in the Mueller report where it says that Trump tried to get someone to commit perjury, because he never did so, which is why the report contains no such example. And of course liberals continue to ignore the simple, logical point that you cannot obstruct justice for a crime that did not happen.
Trump was understandably upset about Mueller's investigation because he knew that neither he nor his aides had colluded with the Russians, and because he could see the unethical methods that Mueller was using to try to get people to turn on him and to persecute people who would not do so. So of course he vented about the investigation and expressed his views on what he thought should happen in some of the cases. That is not obstruction of justice. If Mueller believed he had even halfway clear evidence of obstruction, he certainly would have said so, instead of saying, in effect, "well, I'm not going to make a call about obstruction, but these incidents might be construed as obstruction by some people." Try floating that nonsense in a court of law.
The above shall be left standing as a monument to both abject subservience and willful ignorance.
