As Trump said the election law violations are peanuts. Trump's real problem is he obstructed justice and Mueller can prove. Since the public is not seeing indictments and leaks about obstruction, plus it's old news, the public and the media are ignoring it. However, obstruction is likely to be one of Mueller strongest cases against Trump because the evidence is overwhelming.
First is Trump's request that Comey let Michael Flynn off the hook which Comey refused followed by the Comey's firing. Then there were Trump's attempts to force others to abandon the investigation. Second, there was Trump's efforts to stop Sessions from recusing himself which he certainly should have done. Then twice Trump ordered Mueller fired; dictated a false account for a key witness, his son Donald Trump Jr., of the June 9, 2016, Trump Tower meeting between the campaign and Russian representatives. Finally, he readily and publicly attacked Mueller and key witnesses over and over. Obviously, this is just the tip of the iceberg.
I suspect that Mueller is going to turn the Obstruction case over to the House sometime next year while he continues the Russia investigation.
