This is not FAKE NEWS so everyone just shut up:

So, basically, a Trump lawyer says Trump is innocent, “with few exceptions.” I will soon be releasing a statement from my lawyer too, confirming that I have not murdered anyone recently, “with few exceptions.” I hope this satisfies everyone.

I wonder if Trump has yet figured out that the FBI investigation about Russia ties is targeted at lots of people besides him? Or is that just inconceivable to him?
