Trump on 2016: 'No, Russia did not help me'
Source: CNN
President Donald Trump on Friday called the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election "one of the great hoaxes," and denied anything they did aided his victory.
"No, Russia did not help me, that I can tell you, OK?" Trump said.
"Are there any Russians in the audience, please?" he asked. In a jab at rival Hillary Clinton for losing a key state, said he "didn't see many Russians in Pennsylvania."
"Honestly, it's the thing they did best," Trump said of Democrats. "They did a rotten job of running, but they convinced people about this hoax. That was probably the thing that they did best, but it was one great hoax."

If anyone has proved themselves totally trustworthy, it's Donald J. Trump!
I don't think this is necessary, but you never know.

(29,193 posts)"believe me" or "that I can tell you" you KNOW he is lying his ass off.
Of course, any other way he ends a sentence is also a lie so maybe this isn't much of a tell.
