I use the media, Democrats, Hollywood and a very liberal court system as my "guide".      CNN has already claimed the whole Russia investigation coverage was a "nothing burger" and a ratings boost. For Democrats it is a distraction from their own massive losses in the House and Senate last fall, and from dealing with their failed health care program.  For Hollywood, its all about narcissists having nothing better to do in between "acting" jobs but "resist" a duly elected President and his agenda.  So sad.  The courts are very political and have attempted to subvert the other branches of our government by actively legislating from the "bench" or "throne"  Fortunately the Supreme Court is more moderate and will spank the other lower courts when necessary, which is almost always. I'm not  surprised you'd give the President credibility only when it fits your own narrative.
