Is he confirming he is under investigation or not? If he's confirming he believes the story, again, so what? The faithful doesn't think he was confirming the investigation.
They also think he's a worthy President. There is no evidence of such a thing.

That's simultaneously an interesting and disturbing term to use in describing Trump's supporters. Do you worship him as a god? Sounds almost like it when calling Trump supporters "The faithful," very much as if he's worthy of worship. Almost chilling.

Most other politicians have supporters, not a cult following of "the faithful."

Well that leave 3 possibilities

1. Trump is lying to his lemmings and they don't care
2. Trump is crazy
3. His lemmings are crazy

I was using Jhhnn's terminology. Should have used quotes.

The faithful believe what he says. He says he's being investigated so they believe that he is.

There is no consistency to any narrative that originates from Trump. First, they likely do not know for certain if he's under investigation. They would need to ask directly or have Mueller inform them once a certain point has been reached. That point is up to the discretion of Mueller. Could be indictment (I know, POTUS), interview, or any time prior. Willing to bet that hasn't happened. Yet. I also doubt that they've inquired. They don't want to know the real answer as that allows them the Trumpian wiggle room they need to play their disingenuous PR game. Which is exactly what they're doing by playing both sides of the "he's under investigation"/"no, he's not" argument. Using whichever one is more convenient at the time given their audience. And, as shown this weekend on the sunday morning shows, sometimes both for the same audience.

I seriously weep for anyone that falls for the stories this guy is pushing. You have some critical thinking issues or you're just blindly loyal to your own detriment. Maybe both. God (FSM, etc.) help you.

Please try and follow along. Jhhnn mentioned Trump believing the story.

You still apparently are clueless as to what taking something out of context means.
Personal attacks are still your default position right behind pedantry.

Sad.

One day you're going to see something that makes you believe the Earth is a sphere and maybe that will properly humble you.

Yea, Trump claims a lot of shit that isn't true. But who cares if people believe it?
You mean something along the lines of Trump declares that the U.S. has established a dialog with the greatest aliens in the universe and wants to negotiate a business deal with them through Jared Kushner. It will be the most fantastic deal, great plan with tremendous jobs created. Those aliens make the most fabulous chocolate cakes and ice cream on the most beautiful ships in existence. It will be a great plan with fabulous benefits for Americans everywhere and they promise not to investigate me if I agree to their terms.:p
