yes, since 'collusion' is not a term defined under law, he went straight for obstruction of justice and how he was not able to indict a sitting POTUS for the crimes he committed.. You need to go further.

Read it all and get back to me.

Tell me what you think of so many people in the campaign having so many ties with Russians? Is that normal to you? Can you think of any other Presidential candidate whose campaign was in contact with over 50 + Russians leading up to the election.

How many other Presidential candidates had campaign members either go to jail or still may be going to jail?

I could go on but I will wait until you have read the entire report.

Actually, the Mueller investigation was an investigation into Russian interference in our election. It concluded that they had done so in "sweeping and systematic" fashion.

Mueller did not conclude that the Trump team's behavior vis-a-vis that effort rose to the level of criminal conspiracy. He did suggest that often enough, obstruction had kept him from the evidence though.

Mueller did not address collusion, as there is no such crime.

He strongly suggested that obstruction had occurred, but that he could not charge a sitting president with a crime, that Congress was empowered to address that.

Robert Mueller did not address Trump's finances, his buck raking, his nepotism, his shocking security breaches or any of the myriad lesser crimes that Trump commits on a daily basis. But Congress is in the process of conducting oversight. The Trump administration is asserting that they have no such power. The courts seem to be favoring the law though.
