♪ >> Stephen: HEY, EVERYBODY.

WE'RE BACK WITH ONE OF THE LEAD PROSECUTORS FOR THE MUELLER

INVESTIGATION AND AUTHOR OF "WHERE LAW ENDS," ANDREW

WEISSMANN.

THE FINAL REPORT DID NOT CONCLUDE THAT THE PRESIDENT

BROKE NEW LAWS, BUT IT ALSO SPECIFICALLY DID NOT CONCLUDE

THE PRESIDENT HADN'T BROKEN ANY LAWS.

>> SON THAT CLEAR TO YOU?

>> Stephen: YES.

( LAUGHTER ) YOU WERE ON THE INSIDE.

YOU KNOW, THIS ISN'T AN OFFICIAL REPORT.

THIS IS JUST US SITTING ON TWO BAR STOOLS.

DID THE PRESIDENT COMMIT ANY CRIMES?

>> THERE WAS A LOT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT WHETHER WE SHOULD JUST

COME OUT AND SAY IT IN THE REPORT AS OPPOSED TO SAYING THE

PHRASE THAT YOU JUST SAID, WHICH IS VERY CONVOLUTED.

MY VIEW, MY PERSONAL VIEW IS THAT ANY PROSECUTOR WORTH THEIR

SALT -- HOPEFULLY I'M ONE OF THEM -- WOULD SAY THAT THE

PRESIDENT OBSTRUCTED JUSTICE.

>> Stephen: SO WHEN BARR WENT OUT THERE WITH HIS FOUR-PAGE

SUMMARY OF YOUR VOLUMINOUS REPORT, DID YOU KNOW THAT HE WAS

GOING TO ABSOLUTELY SANDBAG THE AMERICAN PEOPLE?

BECAUSE I READ A LOT OF YOUR REPORT AND YOU DO STATE IN THERE

TEAM STATES IN THERE IN THE NAME OF MR. MUELLER -- THAT IF HE

WASN'T PRESIDENT, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN PROSECUTED, NOT SO MANY

WORDS BUT DEFINITELY IN THAT MEANING.

WHAT DID IT FEEL LIKE TO HEAR YOU GET SOLD UP THE RIVER BY

BARR?

>> GOING BACK TO YOUR FIRST QUESTION, THAT'S WHERE LAW

ENDED.

>> Stephen: WHEN BARR STEPPED OUT THERE.

>> YEP.

THAT WAS REALLY SOUL CRUSHING.

>> Stephen: WELL, IF THE PRESIDENT LOSES IN NOVEMBER,

WOULD IT BE REASONABLE FOR HIM TO BE PROSECUTED?

>> COMPLICATED QUESTION.

IT WOULD BE REASONABLE, BUT, ON THE ONE HAND, YOU DON'T WANT TO

BE A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY WHERE WE'RE JUST PROSECUTING THE NEXT

PRESIDENT, YOUR POLITICAL OPPONENT.

ON THE OTHER HAND, YOU DON'T WANT TO HAVE SORT OF A LICENSE

FOR SOMEBODY TO COMMIT A CRIME WHILE THEY'RE IN OFFICE OR

PREVIOUSLY AND FEEL LIKE THEY WILL NEVER BE HELD TO ACCOUNT

JUST BECAUSE THEY BECAME PRESIDENT.

SO THE NEXT ATTORNEY GENERAL, HE'S GOING TO HAVE A HARD

DECISION.

>> Stephen: WELL, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE.

"WHERE LAW ENDS" IS AVAILABLE NOW.

ANDREW WEISSMANN, EVERYBODY.

WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
