In a year and a half of investigations, leaks, and general incompetence, the story from the President’s side has gone through this many changes (that I can remember):

• The Russians had nothing to do with election meddling.
• Okay it was the Russians (maybe) but our campaign team had no contact with any Russians
• Okay we had a meeting with Russians but it was about adoptions
• Ok Junior just released some emails that it was about getting dirt on Hillary but we didn’t get anything from them
• Okay fine we were in contact with Wikileaks while they were releasing the info the Russians gave them from the hacks but the President was not informed about this
• Yes there might have been some phone calls from a blocked number before and after the Russian meeting but Junior didn’t remember who it was and definitely remembered it wasn’t President Dad
• Okay so the President’s former lawyer just claimed he knew about the meeting but he’s a scumbag and a liar who can’t be trusted which is why the President had him on the payroll for years
• There was no Collusion
• Even if there was, collusion is not a crime
• (but Hillary was totally colluding and should be in jail)

This is the dumbest conspiracy that has literally been no surprise to anyone at all except for the fact that the conspirators are really really bad at keeping it secret and that it fucking worked.
