Donald Trump on Saturday called himself “perhaps the most honest guy almost in the world,” a claim his critics didn’t buy given the former president’s extensive history of lying.

Trump on Saturday falsely claimed “they found nothing” despite all of those cases and a combined total of 88 criminal counts:

“They found nothing, so it’s a mystery why four different grand juries in four jurisdictions indicted me for 91 felonies.”
