You do realize how the criminal justice system in the US works, don't you? Are you up on your Bill of Rights? Obviously you are not. Try checking out the 6th Amendment. You will learn that one of the most sacred principles in the American criminal justice system, is that a defendant
is innocent until proven guilty.
You are getting hung up on the word exonerated - which is not the right word to use here. Because in legal circles, to be exonerated means
a person who has been wrongfully convicted of a crime is later officially cleared based on new evidence of innocence.

So by definition, Mueller could never exonerate Pres Trump as the President was never convicted of a crime to begin with. And Mueller as a lawyer knew this but he knew uneducated rubes would not.
Mueller did
not find that President Trump committed any crime. That is clear. Just because he later made a media statement to play up to ill informed liberals like you that “If we had had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so,” - Mueller leaves unsaid in that statement the simple fact that Mueller and his band of merry Democrats, after nearly 2 years found no evidence that the President committed a crime. His statement was clearly intended for ill educated fools to lap it up and take it out of context - and the media and most liberals did.
Per the report - Volume I of the report concludes that the investigation
did not find sufficient evidence that the campaign "coordinated or conspired with the Russian government in its election-interference activities"
Volume II of the report on obstruction of justice "
does not conclude that the President committed a crime, [and] it also does not exonerate him"
But again, by definition the report could never "exonerate" him.
So back to the Bill of Rights and one of the most sacred principles in the American criminal justice system - a person
is innocent until proven guilty.
The bottom line is President Trump
was innocent - and no matter how much you want to try and play word games or deny the facts, that will never change. And I know it eats the living hell out of you
Now - lets get back on topic - the topic of the thread is Lafayette park and the lies spread about it by the media and senile Biden himself. Don't you feel foolish for being deceived by those lies? Or has your mind been altered by a stream of endless media lies that you simply can't ascertain reality any more?
