Claims evidence that Trump officials liaised with Russia over the Wikileaks hack and releases. That does not amount to “proof” - just a whole lot more than a “hoax”. There is a lot of material in support of that.

That Manafort shared Trump campaign data with Russia seems very well established, and that is the definition of collusion. Again, collusion is very far from a hoax.

You can argue that it was not significant, but the senate committee concluded that it was a “grave threat” to American counterintelligence efforts. I’m not claiming that Trump should have been impeached over it - he wasn’t, and I didn’t want him to be. Nor would I claim that’s why Trump won.

But it is definitely not a hoax. Your point here is basically “yeah, so they colluded by sharing information, but it wasn’t serious and the Ruskies could have gotten the same info through other channels”. Maybe so, but apparently they didn’t. They colluded with Manafort, if not others too.
