'The results of the investigation are a total victory for the President,' said Trump's attorneys. But even as they hailed the report as a win for Trump, the lawyers also sowed doubts about its veracity and about the damaging revelations it contained.

Yet even as they held up the report by special counsel Robert Mueller as proof of their client's innocence, Trump's lawyers also sought to undermine the veracity of the report itself, and the scores of damaging revelations contained within it. For those in Trump's political firmament, however, the damaging revelations in the report appeared not to exist at all.
