Trump after Mueller speaks: ‘Nothing changes’ and ‘case is closed’

President Trump said Wednesday that “nothing changes” after special counsel Robert Mueller explained during his first comments on the Russia investigation why he did not charge the president with obstruction of justice.

“Nothing changes from the Mueller Report. There was insufficient evidence and therefore, in our Country, a person is innocent. The case is closed! Thank you,” he tweeted.

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders minutes later reiterated Trump’s stance that it is time to move on from the two-year probe, saying Mueller’s report was “clear” that the president did not commit a crime and that the special counsel “explicitly said that he has nothing to add beyond the report.”
