Barr reported that Mueller could not substantiate claims of collusion and reached no conclusion on obstruction. That's quite literally what Mueller found.
https://www.lawfareblog.com/document-attorney-general-barr-letter-mueller-reportBarr asked Mueller specifically whether or not he'd have indicted the president had it not been for the Justice department memo (re: indictment of a sitting president), Mueller responded in the negative, saying that was not what he was saying. I.e. Even had Mueller been able to indict, he was not saying that he would have.
Mueller saying "I can't clear the president" is inane. That's quite obviously not the role of the prosecutor. Not bringing charges is tantamount to there being insufficient evidence to substantiate those charges, and it is perfectly ok for Trump to consider that vindication in a vacuum.
Oh you're jumping to conclusions you like using "logic" ie this thing o will interpret to be how I want.
Most people who seen this, reasonable people, know what Muller was saying and implying. Why would Barr say the report answers questions the writer of the report says it does not answer?
So much subterfuge. Way for the whole of the GOP to sell out for this one president to cucked them who is so far beneath the average American in terms of honor and ethics.

Am I the only one who watched the speech and not Fox highlights?
Mueller said there was no apparatus to charge the president and that this apparatus needed to be created for future cases like this.
Subterfuge.

He was found not guilty of all charges, vindicated.
OJ was able to be charged by the courts. Inability to be charged by courts due to them lacking jurisdiction isn't the same thing as being innocent.
You guys confirm the consequent and deny the antecedent and call it conclusive. You guys aren't thinking real logically. We know Trump support is more a passion thing though. Just believe strong enough and it doesn't matter what's true
