I don't think that you are expecting him to behave like him. You are right we can agree to disagree. I do not think Bill Clinton or Ronald Regan or George Bush would have reacted like Trump reacts but Trump has been behaving like this since well before he was President and will do afterwards. that does not make him guilty. I think you probably know this. It sounds to me (and I could be wrong) that you think now he is President that he should act more like previous Presidents and with the gravitas of the role. He does not and will not. That is a reasonable position I think. He will never just let investigators go on with things he will hound them and everyone in the peripheral and when it all comes out that he was not colluding he will rub it in everyone's faces. Not Presidential but very him. That doesn't make him guilty either.
I am not for Mueller investigating "everything and everyone swampy and old partisan conspiracy theories" but I am very much for him ACTUALLY investigating ACTUAL collusion with the Russians to influence the 2016 election. Mannafort and Page and Flynn and Junior do not appear to within this scope from what has been put to them. He is simply trying to search for anything to charge them with regardless if it is without that agenda or not. He also seems to not focus on all parties but rather the trump campaign though there is no reason to do so and doubly so now the FISA warrant and dossier are discredited.
I do think if they are hiding money and laundering and such that they do probably need arresting and this goes for Mannafort and Gates and Podesta and such. I shed no tears and hope the book is thrown at them but I question the attention. I think there is a Hell of a lot of collusion to be found in the other camp and that seems to be skating as far as I can tell.
