Fox Analyst: "Mueller said we had evidence that he committed a crime but we couldn't charge him"

Napolitano was very clear: Mueller devastated Trump today.

Mueller said they had evidence of Trump's crimes but couldn't charge him ONLY because his is POTUS.

“Effectively what Bob Mueller said is we had evidence that he committed a crime but we couldn’t charge him because he’s the president of the United States,” Napolitano explained. “This is even stronger than the language in his report. This is also a parting shot at his soon-to-be former boss, the attorney general, because this statement is 180 degrees from the four-page statement that Bill Barr issued at the time he first saw the report.”

“Is it that bad?” host Stuart Varney remarked.

“I think so,” Napolitano replied. “Basically he’s saying the president can’t be indicted, otherwise we would have indicted him and we’re not going to charge him with a crime because there’s no forum in which for him to refute the charges, but we could not say that he didn’t commit a crime, fill in the blank, because we believe he did.”

We haven't heard the end of this.

… too. It was very clear, but Mueller chose not to word it so that almost every English language listener could understand. Surprised to see FOX hosts agreed!
