Have you read any of these "reports"? They contain no "evidence" that could be presented in a court. Did you see Mueller's disastrous Congressional testimony in support of his report? It was clear that he hadn't read it either.

Trump lies like he breathes, but that doesn't mean we have to believe obvious fantasy that obviously supports the continued stupid wars of the military-industrial complex. In general, the most likely possibility is that both the president and the TLAs are lying.

Yes I have. Have you? You can't really say the reports contain no evidence that could be presented in a court when they are redacted and the raw evidence has been sealed. Mueller's testimony was that the report speaks for itself and it does. How is that "disastrous"?

You seem to contradict yourself ITT. Above, you said ...extensive and thorough reports laying out the evidence. Now you say the evidence is redacted and sealed.

No, your qualification was no evidence that could be presented in a court (which I'm not even sure I disagree with since I'm not an expert on what can and cannot be presented in court). There's plenty of underacted evidence in the document.
