Trump's attorney @JaySekulow refuses to acknowledge that Mueller's report did not fully exonerate the President

"This exoneration standard is absurd. Prosecutors do not exonerate. They determine whether there is culpability to move forward or not."
.@JaySekulow strongly criticizes Mueller's testimony that his investigation did not exonerate the President. Sekulow says Mueller "does not understand the burden of proof."
Responding to Mueller's claim that Trump could be prosecuted once he left office, Trump's lawyer says "I don't buy any of that. I'm not concerned about that."

2. we know for a FACT that #Mueller did not write EVEN ONE WORD of the "Mueller Report"

and we know that neither Andrew Weissmann did.

so, the question is:
WHO did write that sloppy piece of junk called the "Mueller Report" ?
3. The "MUELLER REPORT": a sloppy piece of junk.
Cost: $40 Million
(paid by us, taxpayers),

a sloppy piece of junk which took 2 YEARS to be produced.

Does. Not. Exonerate.
"If we had confidence that [#Trump] clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so..

By regulation, it was bound by [DOJ] policy ..Charging [Trump] with a crime was, therefore, not an option we could consider.”

Shorter #Mueller: Trump is guilty af
"The opinion says the constitution requires a process other than the criminal justice system to formally accuse a sitting president of wrongdoing."

Mueller just issued an impeachment referral to Congress, in case his report was not clear.

Trump’s circle is still in legal peril: “the biggest legal minefield here is the number of different offices looking at this,” said Berit Berger, a former federal prosecutor who’s now at Columbia Law School. “You can’t say they’re all witch hunts.” chicagotribune.com/news/nationwor…
As we wait for Barr to reveal the Mueller Report, let’s review.

This article provides a good overview of the many ongoing investigations into TeamTrump all of which are being handled by the DOJ or have been framed out to other jurisdictions.
Remember Mueller’s focus is narrow.
📌Federal prosecutors in New York are investigating the Trump Organization and his 2016 campaign for possible campaign finance violations.

📌They’ve also issued subpoenas to Trump’s inaugural committee.
