There was a hearing for both of the volumes of the Mueller Report
The first hearing analyzed charges of obstruction of justice
The second hearing analyzed Russia's involvement in elections, primarily in relation to the Trump campaign
Mueller legally conluded that he had insuffiecient evidence to charge the Trump campaign of collusion with Russia
Mueller legally concluded that DOJ policy made him unable to make a descision as to the validity of a charge against a sitting president
There are evidences of connections between Trump's campaign and Russia
Mueller stated that witnesses of the investigation sometimes lied
Volume I, p. 10 of the Mueller Report states that some witnesses avoided testifying, lied, omitted things, or destroyed evidence
If Mueller was given more information by witnesses, he would possibly have had the ability to charge the President
There is no certainty of obstruction and conspiracy in this case
The given evidence indicates misconduct
Trump would not be interviewed or fully answer the questions written to him
Trump tried to covertly fire the special counsel
Attorney General declared the investigation to say that Trump was not guilty of collusion or obstruction
Opinion (4)
Mueller indirectly stated that Trump had an antagonistic attitude towards the investigation which suggest that he is guilty of obstruction
Mueller's calling his refusal to indict on the basis of having insuffiecient evidence means that he has evidence, just not enough
Former federal prosecutors believe that Trump would be indicted if her were not a sitting president
Trump is a president who believes the public should be kept in the dark
