'America is the greatest place on Earth': Trump finds new lease with Mueller vindication
Mueller Report,Donald Trump,White House,Politics
After two years under investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller, the good news was delivered to President Trump Sunday by his team of attorneys and staff at his private quarters at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
No collusion with Russia, no charges of obstructing justice.
βThis is very good,β Mr. Trump said upon hearing the news.
The president and his advisers didnβt have access to the confidential Mueller report, instead reviewing Attorney General William P. Barrβs summary that was also transmitted to Congress.
It said Mr. Mueller found no evidence of Trump campaign officials or other Americans conspiring with Russians to tamper with the 2016 presidential election.
And it said Mr. Barr and Deputy Attorney Rod Rosenstein concluded there wasnβt enough evidence of obstruction of justice to prosecute, after Mr. Mueller failed to reach a decision on that question.
White House deputy press secretary Hogan Gidley said late Sunday that the president is βfeeling very good.β
βHeβs in a really good mood,β Mr. Gidley told reporters after Mr. Trump and his team returned to Washington on Air Force One. βHeβs just very happy with how it all turned out.β
The president watched TV on the flight from Florida, talked to staff including Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney in his office on the plane, and made phone calls, apparently sharing the good news.
βDonald Trump has been put in this horrible position for the last three years,β Mr. Gidley said.
