My take was to wait and see what the report actually says, but you guys have proven correct more often than me? My take was we do not really know anything? Seems like DU disagrees and considers Mueller to have exonerated Trump, even if they might at the same time disagree with that exoneration? Trying to get a sense of things here.
BTW, please try to answer with more than one word. I am genuinely confused, trust you guys a lot, and need some clarity here.

(27,813 posts)Perhaps you can enlighten everyone as to what the report says, and why you think it's a bust.
We'll wait.

(27,813 posts)Do you think Mueller is the only person in the country who can issue indictments?
There are ongoing investigations in SDNY and other jurisdictions where indictments can (and probably will be) handed down. And indictments in those jurisdictions are not open to a presidential pardon.
Wake up yourself ...

(27,813 posts)You're the one screaming that Mueller's report is a "bust". Again, I'd ask you to enlighten the rest of us with what you know about his findings, and why they are a bust.
We'll wait.

(130,865 posts)there is no evidence that Mueller has exonerated Trump, especially considering the #### of referrals to other offices Mueller has made.

(1,835 posts)No additional indictments is not even the whole ball game in terms of an impeachment in my opinion!

(3,344 posts)However, it seems Mueller himself will not be pursuing any further indictments.
Mueller has previously referred many things to other jurisdictions though (DC, NY) so indictments could come from there, and I expect they will.
