What is the benefit of keeping the charade going? None, IMHO.

The point of the charade would have been to keep the deep state preoccupied while they were being investigated, so they wouldn't catch on. But at this point, the deep state is quite aware of the traps they've fallen into, and there's no more advantage in Trump deceiving his enemies about this. The investigation is nearly complete.

Trump wouldn't risk giving away a senate seat of a secret ally to gain NOTHING. It doesn't make sense. There is no queen to be captured by making this move. There's no 4D chess here.

Finally, Trump wasn't foiled by Sessions. He was slowed down for a couple years by Sessions. If Sessions had done his job, the evidence that is coming out now would have been coming out two years ago.
