The Lowest Low Life tweeted Saturday night:
So President Obama knew about Russia before the Election. Why didn’t he do something about it? Why didn’t he tell our campaign? Because it is all a big hoax, that’s why, and he thought Crooked Hillary was going to win!!!
He cannot help himself. And he is hoisting himself on his own petard. On Sunday outgoing Republican Congressman Trey Gowdy of South Carolina said on Fox "the evidence is overwhelming." Gowdy also urged Trump cabinet members and advisers to "reevaluate whether or not they can serve" an unapologetic Russian agent. At least one may be doing just that:
The most striking comments from a Trump adviser came Thursday, when Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats told the Aspen Security Forum that he wished the president had not met one-on-one with Putin. When Coats was informed by NBC News' Andrea Mitchell that Trump had invited Putin to Washington in the fall, he dramatically cupped his hand to his ear and told her: "Say that again." He then took a deep breath and continued: "OK. That's going to be special."

Note that is from Fox. That is the Low Lifes main news source. As the "Farmer from Pennsylvania" wrote his friend last week, Fox is key.
As a former prosecutor Trey Gowdy knows that lying about the undeniable is sometimes better than a confession. It shows a guilty conscience. Robert Mueller knows this too. Consider: A guy says, "I confess. I did it and I am a horrible human being." Or, "I didn't do it! I'm not the kind of person to do something like that." Human beings have the hardest time confessing. It goes against the self-preservation instinct. When a person just lays himself bare, a lot of people--prosecutors, defense attorneys, most importantly jurors--are apt to look behind the unnatural for an explanation: "The cops forced him to confess."
People will also, of course, look behind the natural, a categorical denial. And if they see even one credible eyewitness saying the guy did it, the guy is in deep doo-doo. If they see, as here, repeated denials in the face of "overwhelming" evidence, 17 eyewitnesses, the denials of the undeniable become part of the evidence. The guy is toast and contempt gets heaped upon judgment. That is where Trump is right now.
