Mueller's line about the President not being exonerated is a bullcrap cheap shot

It's like your typical run of the mill prosecutor being salty and bitter after a jury/judge declines to accept criminal charges for a defendant or the defendant is a acquitted by a jury.

The prosecutor saying just because the defendant wasn't found guilty doesn't mean he was exonerated.

That's how much contempt some prosecutors like Mueller have for the notion of being presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

What is implied is that he isn’t exonerated when it comes to obstruction of justice. But since the charge of Russian collusion has been indisputably dismissed, how could Trump have obstructed justice based on a false allegation and lie? That’s just defending yourself.

Like I do when I think most people on this board are being psycho I will treat the other side the same way. I sure did think there was collusion. I was wrong. On the count of obstruction of justice, id like to see that play out through the proper channels.

R/politics is quite frankly psychotic right now. A lot of talk about how if mueller found no evidence of Russia interference they would accept the results and it’s just the opposite. I’m not sure I understand the line of logic behind thinking an AG is going to lie and the people who prepared the report aren’t going to say anything about it. The results are in, I’m glad there was an investigation, but it’s innocent until proven guilty even if your personal opinion is that the accused is guilty. There are people on the left who are refusing to accept that and actually seem sorta angry that there was no collusion. I don’t get it.

Investigating whether someone did not obstruct a criminal investigation of a crime that didnt happen, is like asking a prosecutor to prove you didn't NOT do something

How can anyone be exonerated from not doing something? fricking semantics and a parting jab by Mueller, whose entire job was to cover up his own legacy IC

No one is ever declared "Innocent".
They are declared "Not Guilty".

Stop screaming. CNN is for IQ's of 80 and below.

For those people it is truth, reality, and it makes sense.

To the above average intelligence that can cognitively analyze in real time how obscene and dumb the point being made truly is, you wonder who the frick buys this low grade beef?

And we know who does.

It did. The only obstruction was Vile Bob covering for a rotten DOJ.

Yes /\

This statement alone takes away any 'integrity' of Mueller in his handling of this case.

He SHOULD have said - "I sent my best rabid pitbulls out there to persecute this S.O.B. and found exactly NOTHING!! This whole mess was a HOAX. I should have shut it down in three weeks! Now I recommend another Special Counsel to root out all the instigatiors of this SEDITIOUS act."

Yes - and that is after a PUBLIC TRIAL

When the DA refuses to even indict a person of murder, there is a good chance that the man is, in fact, not a murderer.
