Trump obstruction?

Not trying to pick a fight here, just genuinely curious how you conservabros react to the latest revelations regarding trump telling Cohen to lie and possible obstruction charges with various other sources of evidence beyond just Cohen trying to save his ass. Also if possible I would ask that you refrain from just bashin the source since that’s just a waste of time (I.e. if your answer is “don’t believe it” that’s fine but I’m more interested in your thoughts “if it turns out to be accurate”).

Not a "Conservabro" but honestly given the current political climate if there isn't any hard proof I don't think this is going to pan out to much... It'll be a He said he said situation. The fact that Cohen has perjured himself before definitely doesn't help his case here either and will 100% be used as a counterpoint.

One common argument I've been reading is people using this as a way to point out the fact that Mueller has gone "way beyond his scope". I disagree, first of all he hasn't gone beyond his scope and also even if you assume he has, it doesn't matter. You don't review security footage to find out about crime A and see another crime occurring in the footage and just let it slide / forget about it...

Looking forward to all the MAGA toads blowing past this guidance, since they haven't had a solid leg to stand on to defend him since he came down the escalator 3 years ago.
