I heard a prosecutor describe circumstantial evidence this way

One morning you wake up and see snow on the ground. You did not witness the snow fall over night. You did not video tape the snow falling over night. You have no direct evidence that it snowed over night.

However, you have overwhelming circumstantial evidence it did snow over night because of the snow on the ground.

Mueller may not find direct evidence of conspiracy, An e-mail or recording. The circumstantial evidence against Trump will be overwhelming and it will carry a lot of weight. There is a lot of snow on the ground.

After The Mueller report is released the American people must see it. We must demand to see it. The Republicans in the senate, their concern for their jobs, along with public polling after the report is released will probably be the deciding factor if Trump is going to be convicted or not.
