Warren told Stephen Colbert she wanted to see the entire report from special counsel Robert Mueller.
When it came to the question of the president's obstruction of justice, special counsel Robert Mueller—who was tasked with investigating Russia's meddling in the 2016 election and potential connections to the Trump campaign—declined to make a decision. According to a summary of the final report, Mueller left that decision to Attorney General William Barr, who decided there wasn't enough evidence to prove Trump obstructed justice.
Colbert pointed out that Warren is a law professor, albeit one on sabbatical."Do you trust Barr's judgment on obstruction here?" he asked."No, and you shouldn't have to ask me if I trust it," she said."We should see the whole report. When we see the whole report, we'll know what the basis is for the decision. Period."
In the interview, Warren pivoted to pointing out that while the Mueller report is important, it's not a big issue for people who have been turning out at campaign events."What people were talking about, what they're asking about, are the things that touch their lives every day," she said. Things are very likely to change, however, with polling this early often reflecting mostly name recognition.
