Interviewing White House Press secretary Sarah Sanders on the Today show, co-host Savannah Guthrie pressed Sanders to “acknowledge it is incorrect for the president to call this a total exoneration” given questions remaining about obstruction of justice. Pivoting from vindication for President Trump on conspiring with Russia, Guthrie relayed how “some critics are saying” it took Mueller years to complete his investigation, but it only took Attorney General Bill Barr two days to conclude there wasn’t a case for obstruction, “so the criticism is here’s a guy making a snap judgment who had already made up his mind about the case.”

Guthrie followed up with how Barr was biased since “he wrote a 19-page memo stating there’s no obstruction case against the president before he saw one piece of evidence.”
