You're the one who quoted the Republican who said that Trump shouldn't be below the law. Mueller didn't say that, your guy did.
Do you know how to have a conversation?
"Did you actually totally exonerate the President? No."

You're the one who quoted the Republican who said that Trump shouldn't be below the law. Mueller didn't say that, your guy did.
Do you know how to have a conversation?
And you obviously are being deliberately obtuse.
When asked why he didn't charge Trump, Mueller plainly said it was because of the OLC guidelines.
So all this that you're screeching about is irrelevant. Mueller didn't think he could indict Trump, so he didn't. You're saying he could have, but then you also say that he couldn't because you believe, as that Republican does, that Trump "shouldn't be below the law".

Mueller didnt disagree, did he? Ratcliff didnt say the president was above the law. He did say that he wasn't beneath the law do the FAULTY principle of guilty until proven innocent.

MAJOR lie youre telling right there
You quoted the exchange, but you clearly took nothing away from it!
The Republican literally said he believed the President "shouldn't be below the law."
That is literally what he said.
My question to you is; if you think and believe Trump shouldn't be below the law, doesn't that mean you think he's above it?

Please read the transcript and comprehend what is going on here.
Absence of proof or proof of negative is not proof.
Try again.
Do you believe, as that Republican does, that Trump shouldn't be below the law?

Lie number 2:
"I agree with the chairman this morning, when he said, "Donald Trump is not above the law." He's not. But he damn sure shouldn't be below the law, which is where Volume 2 of this report puts him."

If you're going to lie this is a wasted dialogue.
Now you're just spitting nonsense.
You seem to be admitting that Trump did break the law by Obstructing justice and by welcoming and encouraging Russian support.
Your argument seems to be that because of an OLC and DOJ technicality, that Mueller exonerated Trump.
But that didn't happen at all.
Instead, you stepped in it by posting a curious comment about how you and your Republican buddies think the President "should not be below the law."
It's literally what you quoted and what you chose to bold.
So why did you bold it if you didn't think it was your smoking gun aegument?
Then you tried to obfuscate by pretending it was a quote from Mueller because it appeared in the transcript, even though Mueller didn't say that. And then, when confronted with the fact that he didn't say that, your sole defense is "well he didn't NOT say that."
That's not a defense.
No, you're the one lying because you don't know how to comprehend things when you hear or see them.
First you started off by saying Mueller didn't bring charges because there wasn't evidence.
Then, you started saying that it doesn't matter if there is evidence because you think the President "should not be below the law".
Now you're saying you never said any of that, even though you did this thread, and that by not NOT saying something, Mueller was saying something, which is twisted pretzel logic and pretty fuckin' desperate.
So we are left with a very bizarre case of you thinking you made a point for yourself, but you actually made a point for me.

THE OLC didnt stop him from challenging the policy. HE HAD THE POWER TO CHALLENGE it for criminal behavior. It isnt a law .
I read the transcript because you quoted it. That's how this whole conversation started. Jesus...you're not very bright.

It's not Mueller saying the President shouldn't be below the law, it's the guy literally saying that.
WOW.
Do you think Mueller said that? he didn't. When you realized he didn't say that, your defense shifted to "well, he didn't NOT say that".
That's not how debate or the law works.

Then why did you misquote what the transcript said? I quoted it directly. Are you a used car salesman?
So Volume 2 puts the President subject to the law, not above it.
How does it do that?
He didn't challenge it because he thought the OLC prevented it, and why would he challenge it anyway since that wasn't the scope of his investigation?
Your argument amounts to "well he didn't NOT do it".
And that's not an argument that has any standing.

Anyone reading the entire link can tell that you are lying. RATCLIFF was responding to what another congressman said.
You fucked yourself over, douchebag.
You're the one who simply isn't bright enough to understand what you're reading.
You ultimately believe that the President is above the law, because you quoted and bolded a Republican saying exactly that.
So why are you arguing with me that he's not?
I didn't misquote anything, you tried to do that by attributing something a Republican said to Mueller by simply the fact that Mueller didn't not say it.
That's where your argument went. Because Mueller didn't say something means what was said is established as what Mueller said. Even though Mueller didn't say that.
Weak fuckin' sauce.
