Is POTUS above the law ?

"It remains our position that the President’s actions here, by virtue of his position as the chief law enforcement officer, could neither constitutionally nor legally constitute obstruction because that would amount to him obstructing himself, and that he could, if he wished, terminate the inquiry, or even exercise his power to pardon if he so desired." - Trump's legal team to the Special Counsel.

Probably. The law is really grey about this stuff, and Mueller has said it's policy not to indict the president. It is not in the Constitution, and the law is untested, but short of a heinous act it's unlikely to result in indictment.

If the President breaks the law, impeachment is the way to go about it... which can be a trick depending on the political reality.
