NEW YORK, N.Y. – A lengthy and thorough investigation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller came up with no actionable evidence of collusion with Russia OR obstruction of justice by President Trump or his campaign.
On Sunday, former Governor Chris Christie – a former U.S. Attorney – offered his analysis of the final Mueller report on Twitter:
_
Bob Mueller “did not find that the Trump campaign or anyone associated with it conspired or coordinated with Russia in its efforts to influence the 2016 U.S. Presidential election.” Complete exoneration by one of the prosecutors with the most integrity and experience in America.

On the charge of obstruction of justice, Bob Mueller’s report “does not conclude that the President committed a crime”. That’s an important finding because that is what prosecutors do—they prosecute, they do not exonerate. Why? Because we all enjoy the presumption of innocence.

We are all presumed innocent under our constitution whether you are President or any other citizen. Prosecutors don’t exonerate folks because that’s not their job—they either prosecute or they don’t. When they don’t, no other exoneration is needed-we are innocent under our laws.
