WHY?! I thought Trump was completely exonerated...right?

To make sure I got this right:

based off a 4-page summary of the report written by his handpicked AG, Donald Trump claimed he was "totally exonerated."

But now that Mueller's entire write up is being released soon, Trump's legal team is preparing a counter-report to the Mueller report -- a counter to the report that originally proved Trump innocent?!?!?!
I think it's due to the fact that so many left-wingers refuse to accept that the report exonerates Trump, and they're bringing up idiotic and irrelevant stuff like Martha Stewart and Lewis Libby, and they desperately need someone to explain the law to them. In other words, you people are too stupid/crazy to understand the Mueller report and its implications, and Trump's lawyers are willing to help you.

IKR....I'd rep you again if I could.

Seems like we have a bunch of posters who've watched a few Fox News segments and now believe they have law degrees.

Once a crime was committed.
So... Show me a man and I will find you a crime? Is that it? Is that how you see Justice?
Martha Stewart and Scooter Libby... No, that is not how that worked. They had a crime and worked the evidence.

if option 1 is in the report then eyebrows might go up.
if Option 2 is in the report then that's a different kind of concern. PS Option 2 is actually what happened.

Wrong. Obstruction of justice is interfering with an investigation. Is it OK to pay off witnesses as long as you eventually are found not guilty?

Be patient, voters won't really care until after Season 8 concludes.

The investigation is over and people are moving on. Try focusing on an actual campaign that can win for next year.

The part that wasn't clear was whether Trump was exonerated of obstructing justice. I guess you'd rather just ignore that, eh?
