Washington (CNN) President Donald Trump and his team on Wednesday sought to downplay the significance of special counsel Robert Mueller's first public comments about his investigation and the reason he did not draw a conclusion on whether Trump committed a crime.

In a remarkable statement on Wednesday, Mueller made clear he would have exonerated Trump if he was confident the President did not commit a crime while also noting that the Constitution offers another avenue -- impeachment -- to accuse a sitting President of a crime.

The comments recast the spotlight on the evidence of potential obstruction of justice contained in Mueller's report and reignited calls for Trump to be impeached. But the resounding message from Trump, his personal attorney, spokesperson and campaign arm: Time to move on.

"Nothing changes from the Mueller Report. There was insufficient evidence and therefore, in our Country, a person is innocent. The case is closed!" Trump tweeted. "Thank you."

Trump's personal attorney Jay Sekulow emphasized that Attorney General Bill Barr "determined that there was no obstruction by the President," and White House press secretary Sarah Sanders hammered home those same conclusions, while urging "everyone" to move on with their lives.
