UPDATE: Trump has no plans to request an investigation of the 'other side' by the attorney general at this time: White House spokesman
Barr made clear he had rejected that possibility of a criminal charge after reviewing the findings of an investigation that has long cast a pall over Trump’s presidency.
The release of the summary is likely to ignite a new political fight in Washington as Democrats push for Barr to release the full report, and Trump seizes on the findings as vindication of his near daily assertion that he was a victim of a “witch hunt” that has cast a long shadow over his presidency.
Mueller declined to draw a conclusion on whether Trump’s conduct constituted obstruction, flagging “‘difficult issues’ of law and fact concerning whether the President’s actions and intent could be viewed as obstruction,” according to Barr, who said that decision was left to him.
