Not exonerated

Special Counsel Mueller has spoken:

He is clear that the investigation found insufficient evidence to charge a “broader conspiracy” with the concerted Russian effort to interfere in the US election against Hillary Clinton and that the investigation did not exonerate the President of obstruction of justice, a charge that can only be pursued in the Congress through impeachment or oversight proceedings.

Insufficient evidence of conspiracy is not exoneration. Not exoneration on obstruction of justice is also not exoneration. We’ve got a President whose middle name should be not exonerated: Donald “Not Exonerated” Trump.
