Barr wrote a very logical legal argument about why a President can't be accused of obstructing justice by closing an investigation if that investigation had no legitimate basis, which is certainly true of Comey's investigation and Mueller's also. If there is no legitimate basis for believing a crime has been committed then that investigation constitutes harassment, not a search for justice. These are not cases where the President believed he was above the law but where the investigators believed they were above the law.Barr wrote a seventeen page report before the Mueller investigation was complete that a sitting president could not obstruct. That is an opinion that the president is above the law. No one under the Constitution is above the law. And anyone with basic knowledge of the law knows this, proving that Bill Barr is not qualified and should have been recused.We know there was no obstruction of justice because Barr and Rosenstein reviewed Mueller's report and both found there were no grounds for obstruction of justice and Mueller has not disagreed with them on this point. You have to try harder to distinguish between wanting to see evidence of a crime and actually seeing evidence of a crime.Obstruction of justice Explain by way of definition, how Trump never did any of the things the definition describes. Because I can.Then clearly you don't know what obstruction of justice is.If that isn't obstruction, I don't know what is. //www.msnbc.com/msnbc/watch/melber-report-details-potential-hanging-of-a-thread-of-the-trump-presidency-1498708547541 Everything we knew about Trump has come true. Trump and his team picked oranges over apples, when the report is filled with apples.
And by the way, why did you ignore my question by not answering it? Is it because you can't? By definition of obstruction of justice Trump repeatedly obstructed. You failed to counter my argument.
Oh, and Rosentein! Rosenstein dropped the ball when he wrote the false letter of termination of Comey, when he included the reason for firing, was over the Clinton email false scandal, then Trump admitted that it was over Russia. Rosenstein is a material witness to a crime Trump committed. For Rosenstein to give us an opinion on obstruction is laughable on its face. And for you to give Barr and Rosenstein credibility on these fronts just shows how dishonest and ignorant of the law you are.
I know you don't want to believe Barr or Rosenstein, but apparently you don't trust Mueller either since he has not disagreed with the conclusion Barr and Rosenstein reached that the President did not obstruct justice.
