Trump hopes Mueller is being fair, because if he is, he is "going to be very happy"

President Trump's response to Sharyl Atkisson's question on whether he'd ever try to remove special Russia probe counsel Robert Mueller:

"Well I hope he's treating everything fairly and if he is I'm going to be very happy because when you talk about innocent, I am truly not involved in any form of collusion with Russia. Believe me. The last thing I can think of to be involved in."

If so he is lying. I have yet to see him open his mouth and move his lips and NOT lie. Unless he was eating. But that was just a brief pause from the lying spewing from his face hole.

He's begging people to believe him, against all common sense. Someone telling the truth doesn't need to say "believe me."

Whenever Trump says, "believe me" that is a tell that he is lying.

When someone says, "Believe me," you probably shouldn't.
