"It explains that under long standing department policy, a president can not be charged with a federal crime while he is in office. That is unconstitutional. Even if the charge is kept under seal and hidden from public view, that too is prohibited. The special council's office is part of the department of justice and by regulation it was bound by that department policy."

"Charging the president with a crime was >therefor< not an option we could consider."

From the press briefing. Mueller's own words. Words he wrote beforehand. Words he considered careful and planned to speak. Words the accuracy of which would have been paramount.

where Mueller said that it wasn't the reason why he didn't indict the president.

That was your statement. MUELLER SAID.

And then you quote the DOJ, a statement that would have come from Barr, and in no way could be defined as MUELLER SAID.

I will take Muller's own words over someone else's characterization of them, thank you.
