Donald Trump seemed elated when Special Counsel Robert Mueller submitted his report. After Attorney General William Barr did a summary of the report, Trump went to the media and declared that according to Barr he had “total exoneration”  — that Mueller did not find evidence of collusion between Trump and Russia.

But Fox News legal analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano, said not so fast. According to Napolitano, Trump most likely faces an array of more problems. And he openly questioned why the Attorney General didn’t note that the Mueller report actually did not exonerate Trump on obstruction of justice.

“Now that’s a head scratcher. Why would the Attorney General reveal any ambivalence on part of the government on whether [the] President has complied with the law?” asked Napolitano, the Raw Story reported. “The Attorney General has opened up a can of worms.”

“When he said in his four-page letter that the government could not establish the existence of a conspiracy – he meant it could not establish it beyond a reasonable doubt. Did they find some evidence of conspiracy? Of course they did! If they didn’t, he would have told us,” he observed.

On top of this, Napolitano said Barr’s summary did indicate that “some evidence of a conspiracy” was found during the investigation.

“In the 700-page summary…there is undoubtedly some evidence of a conspiracy and some evidence of obstruction of justice, just not enough evidence…to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt,” Napolitano said, the Huffington Post reported.

“Once the 700 pages come out, the Democrats and other Trump opponents will have a field day with what is in there,” he added. “If there was no evidence of conspiracy and no evidence of obstruction, the attorney general would have told us so. He didn’t. So there is something in there.”
