No one is ignoring evidence. Mueller is saying he could not find adequate evidence. Are you suggesting Mueller himself is ignoring evidence? That there is enough to charge a criminal conspiracy and Mueller just ignored it?

I'm saying that the evidence shows that Trump personally, as well as other members of his campaign, asked for, knew about and accepted help from the Russian government and did nothing to prevent it (any other campaign would have been reporting the Russian contacts to the FBI). That's not exoneration. At most, that's got really lucky they couldn't be charged.
I'm also saying that Mueller did not have access to any Russian witnesses (nor Assange) and the two most likely Trump participants - Stone and Manafort - did not cooperate. It safe to assume they know things that might have aided the prosecution.
