YES, THAT THEN MAKES IT A WITCH HUNT TO SPEND 50 MILLION JUST ON MUELLER AND NO CHARGES AGAIST TRUMP.

All capital boldness aside, this is a weak response, for several reasons. First off, you act as if the sole purpose of this investigation was to charge Trump. It very much was not. It was an investigation into Russian election interference, including possible links between Trump associates and Russian officials. A task the investigation fulfilled. Not only did it lay out the scale of said election interference and named the people behind it, it also got several people from Trump's orbit indicted. Manafort and Stone were sentenced to multiple years in prison, others made plea deals, in other words there were plenty witches that were found out.

As for Trump himself, he explicitly was not exonerated on obstruction charges. He just could have never gotten charged in the first place. Which has nothing to do with the facts of the matter, but was clear from the start due to DOJ policy that a president just can not be indicted. Trump, of course, then was exonerated by the AG Trump himself picked just before the Mueller report came out, the same AG that blatantly misrepresented the reports' content. That's what you actually celebrate, that there was a policy in place that protected Trump no matter what, and that he was sly enough to pick a loyal, complacent AG just in time. Woo-hoo.

Which leads me to the weakest part of your response, the way you dodged my question whether you would feel the same if the roles were reversed. If this were a liberal AG shielding a liberal president like Biden, while several of his former associates - which Biden then pardoned for good measure - were found guilty of crimes that resulted in multi-year prison sentences. Would you still shout "witch hunt", or would you see a huge liberal scandal? 
Of course, for me it's no longer a question now, but a clear assessment, you'd clearly do the latter in the strongest of terms. For your opinion is shaped solely by your political affiliation, that is your starting point, not logic or reason or the facts, but only your blatant partisanship, your compulsion to always take the "conservatives good, liberals bad"-stance no matter what. Of course, you again have every opportunity to convincingly refute that claim. But no one of these "fake Russian story" folks like you ever do.
