Other things Barr said today:
The President can legally tell his aides to lie to investigators
Trump wanting to remove Mueller wasn't obstruction because Trump honestly thought that Mueller being interviewed for the FBI director job under Trump and once disputing fees at a Trump golf course created a conflict of interest, so Trump was probably just saying that he should be removed and a new counsel appointed. Trump's lawyer told him that the reasoning was "silly" but Trump told him to fire him anyways and call him when he did it.
