It seems to me that in order for a charge of 'obstruction' to be
successful there would have to be some underlying criminal
investigation that was being obstructed. There was no underlying crime

Aside from Russians meddling in our elections ...

And not to mention the fact that the campaign welcomed their help. One
of the take-aways from Mueller's testimony was that when asked if it
would be wrong for a politician to accept help from a foreign power, he answered "yes, and an crime". And yet Trump has stated that he would
willingly accept such help and would not report it to the FBI (as he
should).

Hello Dale,

It seems to me that in order for a charge of 'obstruction' to be
successful there would have to be some underlying criminal
investigation that was being obstructed. There was no underlying crime

Aside from Russians meddling in our elections ...

And not to mention the fact that the campaign welcomed their help.

Did they? Or were they just curious to find out what they had
to offer? A scandal is not necessarily a crime. Even if it is.

One of the take-aways from Mueller's testimony was that when asked if it
would be wrong for a politician to accept help from a foreign power, he answered "yes, and an crime".

Donald Trump Jr is not a politician. Mueller decided not to charge
him with any crime, letting him off the hook by calling him "naive".

And yet Trump has stated that he would willingly accept such help and would
not report it to the FBI (as he should).

Norway is not a hostile country.
