If Trump knew Flynn had broken the law, then asked Comey to "go easy" - it's Obstruction!

Get it?

If Trump didn't know Flynn had broken the law, asking Comey to go easy isn't obstruction.

However,

If Trump DID know Flynn had broken the law, asking Comey to go easy IS obstruction. He tried to make Comey a co-conspirator. There's probably a whole host of broken laws Trump could be charged with.

Indeed.

If that were true, he would already be charged. It's unlikely the Democrats would permit him the time to dismember them as he has done the last eleven months.

Then Comey obstructed Justice when he let HRC off the hook.

There is nothing Democrats can do. Comey, Mueller, the Senate, the House, the Executive branch are all either Republican or controlled by Republicans. Democrats have no power.

If everyone knows that, how come you don't?
