Donald Trump failed to influence investigation largely because aides refused to listen to him: MuellerReport

President Donald Trump was determined not to have influenced special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation largely due to the fact that those around the president refused to “carry out orders,” according to the final report.

The report said that on June 17, 2017, Trump directed McGahn to have then-acting Attorney General Rod Rosenstein “say that the Special Counsel had conflicts of interest and must be removed.” The report continues: “Comey did not end the investigation of Flynn, which ultimately resulted in Flynn's prosecution and conviction for lying to the FBI. McGahn did not tell the Acting Attorney General that the Special Counsel must be removed, but was instead prepared to resign over the President's order. [Corey] Lewandowski and [Rick] Dearborn did not deliver the President's message to Sessions that he should confine the Russia investigation to future election meddling only.

Democrats have since blasted Barr for his previous summary and Thursday morning press conference where he rehashed there was no “collusion” between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 election.

INTENT AND ONE ACT TOWARDS IT IS ENOUGH

Isn’t the intent what is important?

Fired!

Because loyalty should be to the United States and NOT trump.

Partisan Hacks!

and these aides were playing 'human shield' roles? it actually sounds a bit heroic, possibly the equivalent of seppuku?

Refusing to listen to Trump is always a good choice.

worthless leader

Give them aides medals!

A Mueller style investigation: Drs found bruising of the vagina and anus, semen genetically identified Trump, Melania walked in on Trump and the victim, victim identified Melania as she turned and walked out. No finding as Trump cannot be indicted. RepJerryNadler

Bubba the President can fire him

Donald tried to get middlemen to do crimes for him.....that should still be an impeachable offense. The next move is getting a FULL unredacted version of the report to the Judical Committee. Then talk to Mueller and Barr under oath, then Impeach or force to Resign .

So the republicans response will be just because someone wants to commit a crime, doesn’t mean a crime was committed.
