Goes to proving His state of mind when prosecution is trying prove He knew He lost.
Most of the things I've come across are He was told He lost by Meadows and others.....I think Cass Hutchinson claimed He said He knew it...but she knew about Him trying to hijack His SS vehicle.
Direct evidence shows a defendant's state of mind or actions, while circumstantial evidence can imply a guilty mind.
In Trump's case, direct evidence could include testimony about his private admission that he had lost the election. At least two former White House aides have come forward with claims to that effect. One of them, Cassidy Hutchinson, testified before Congress last year that she was told by her boss, former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, that "a lot of times (Trump will) tell me that he lost, but he wants to keep fighting it."
Key Question in Two Trump Cases: Did He Know He Lost?
During the ninth and possibly final hearing, the committee investigating the January 6 insurrection shared new testimony from Alyssa Farah, a former White House aide, who said that a week after the election was called in favor of Biden, Trump was watching Biden on the television in the Oval Office, and said: “‘Can you believe I lost to this effing guy?’”

In another new clip of testimony from Cassidy Hutchinson, a top aide to former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows, she shared that Trump told Meadows: “I don’t want people to know we lost, Mark. This is embarrassing. Figure it out.”
