(Joshua Roberts/Reuters)Opinion writerBarry H. Berke, Norman Eisen and Noah Bookbinder are out with an updated analysis regarding President Trump’s possible obstruction of justice. At 167 pages, it’s not a quick read but, fortunately, there is an executive summary that spells out the bottom line:There is substantial evidence that President Trump may have obstructed justice. With regard to obstruction of justice, the authors conclude:President Trump’s pattern of conduct is of a kind and type that is regularly prosecuted as obstruction of justice. Their analysis also concluded that Trump is potentially liable for witness-tampering and conspiracy to obstruct justice. President Richard M. Nixon himself didn’t break-in to the Democratic National Committee’s Watergate offices; he obstructed justice after the fact.
