I sure wish those out there barking about Biden's supposed corruption would apply the same "no proof" metric. IJS

I have acknowledged it a number of times. The bottom line: Mueller exercised his prosecutorial authority and declined to pursue charges. It happens every day in America.
That said, I have a question for you, and yes its a hypothetical so you don't need to respond to it.
If you were President at that time, and you knew that the stuff being published in the paper was false but being repeated as "fact" and supported by unnamed sources, you knew that what your political opponents were saying was false, would you react? Would you ask your acting AG not to appoint a special prosecutor? Would you fire your FBI director, who treated information in a "dossier" that he knew to be false as information that was appropriate for a presidential briefing (and who, quite frankly, behaved in an absolutely inexplicable manner as it relates to the Clinton email investigation)? In doing any of the above, would you consider yourself as someone who was obstructing justice, or would you think that you were trying to stop a miscarriage of justice?
