Obstruction of justice IS a crime.

It's worth noting the 3 articles of impeachment in Mr. Nixon's case did not include 'robbery', they were:
  1. obstruction of justice;
  2. abuse of power,
  3. & contempt of Congress.

That's what the frickin investigation was about to see if Trump was involved in it, and NO he was not involved in it. Charge Russia..... Not sure what you don't get?

I dunno, your guess is likely better than mine, all I can say is it's baffling.

President Obama sanctioned Russia in 2016, I saw a small part of it:

US shuts down Russian compound in Glen Cove

Quote:
Now, as the Obama administration retaliates for alleged cyber-meddling in the U.S. presidential election, Russians are being denied access to the compounds starting at noon Friday. President Barack Obama recently announced that step in Washington as part of sanctions highlighted by the expulsion of 35 Russians.

Interesting newly released poll from Quinnipiac. Yes I know the responses...isn't that the same that said Hillary Clinton would win?? And you can come back and say isn't that the poll that accurately predicted the Dems would take back the House....nuf said. This is pretty interesting though.

Quote:
American voters say 57 - 28 percent that Donald Trump committed crimes before he became president, according to a Quinnipiac University National Poll released today.

This compares to results of a March 5 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh- pe-ack) University National Poll, before release of the Mueller Report, in which voters said 64 - 24 percent that President Trump committed crimes before he was elected.

In today's survey, 46 percent of voters say Trump committed crimes since he became president and 46 percent say he did not commit crimes.

But American voters say 66 - 29 percent that Congress should not begin impeachment of President Trump. Democrats support impeachment 56 - 38 percent. Opposition to impeachment is 95 - 4 percent among Republicans and 70 - 27 percent among independent voters.

Investigating Trump distracts Congress from other national issues, 53 percent of voters say, while 43 percent say Congress can investigate Trump and work on other national issues at the same time.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller conducted a fair investigation, voters say 72 - 18 percent, including 65 - 25 percent among Republicans.

Voters say 51 - 38 percent that the Mueller Report did not clear President Trump of any wrongdoing.

American voters also say 54 - 42 percent that Trump "attempted to derail or obstruct the investigation into the Russian interference in the 2016 election."

"No. The Mueller Report did not clear President Trump, American voters say," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.

"Yes. The President tried to thwart the investigation.

"But should impeachment proceed?

"The resounding 'no' from voters says Americans want to move on."

American voters give President Trump a negative 41 - 55 percent job approval rating, compared to a negative 38 - 55 percent rating March 5, before the release of the Mueller Report. Today, there is a wide gender gap as women disapprove 62 - 34 percent while men are divided, with 48 percent approving and 46 percent disapproving.
Looks like this will be settled in the voting booth in 2020.
