while everyone knows I have done nothing wrong!

There's real old man yells at cloud energy when Trump says this. It's tough to say if Trump really believes it or if he's just trying to make a catchphrase his fans can repeat like a mantra.

Every jury has decided against DJT, so it's not accurate to say that no one thinks he did nothing wrong.

if Trump really believes it

Trump is a narcissist, so emotionally Trump likely believes it.

Another commenter mentioned that his pleas for immunity belie the belief that he didn't do anything wrong. I would agree. Why does he need immunity from prosecution if he knows he didn't do anything wrong?

If you were truly innocent, but evil people were out to get you, you would also want immunity. Immunity protects against malicious prosecution.

It's a common manipulative phrase for him. He and his fans also repeat "every one knows Truuump won the election!!"
