But their emails.

Several members of the Trump campaign deleted emails and other electronic communications before Special Counsel Robert Mueller was able to see them, according to the censored version of the Mueller report released on Thursday.

According to the report, "some of the individuals we interviewed or whose conduct we investigated — including some associated with the Trump campaign — deleted relevant communications or communicated during the relevant period using applications that feature encryption or that do not provide for long-term retention of data or communications records."

Because people close to Trump destroyed evidence, Mueller's investigation was hindered.

3. I wonder does deleting stuff leave a signature trail?

Where you at least can show something was deleted?

4. Destruction of evidence is fine if a celebrity President says so. You can do anything.

5. Isn't The Destroying Of Evidence A Crime In And Of Itself?......

Isn't this obstruction?

Didn't Mueller have enough money in his budget to work to obtain deleted e-mails and electronic communications? I thought if one searched hard enough that these e-mails and communications are out there and can be recovered?

6. How is this not obstruction?

7. If you or I did that, we'd be looking at 10 years.

It's really starting to feel like we are going to learn Nixon, in his comments to David Frost, was right...when the president does it, it's not a crime.

WTF. Sorry for the mini-rant, it's just initially a bleak day.

8. I've been told by several knowledeable people

That nothing ever completely disappears on your computer. Put the tech people on it.

9. K, why weren't they brought up on charges !?!? "deleted relevant communications"

[sinkingfeeling]

10. Where are the charges against those who impeded the investigation?

[ChoppinBroccoli]

11. I Seem To Remember Republicans Thinking Deleting Emails Was Kind Of A Big Deal

Wonder if they've changed their minds on the subject yet again. LOL

12. Was the evidence under subpoena?

Or subject to Federal Record Keeping regulations?

That could be a big felony (ies)
