You are Correct, and President Trump was a Private Citizen until Jan 20, 2017, so he would have to have "colluded" since that date, using your own logic, therefore, this entire "Russian" hunt is moot

It has been proven that Russia interfered with the election process in order to get Trump elected, and since Team Trump had ties to Russia and tried to hide them, it looks suspicious. Since then, Comey admitted to the FBI being engaged in an anti-intelligence investigation that was looking into how much, if at all, Team Trump colluded with Russia. Schiff says he has seen "more than circumstantial" evidence of Team Trump's collusion with Russia.
Republicans keep trying to deny that Russia influenced the election at all, which is nonsense, and fuels the fire.
Right now there is only circumstantial evidence that Trump colluded with Russia. But people eat it up.
The U.S. intelligence official who “unmasked,” or exposed, the names of multiple private citizens affiliated with the Trump team is someone “very well known, very high up, very senior in the intelligence world
...
In addition, citizens affiliated with Trump’s team who were unmasked were not associated with any intelligence about Russia or other foreign intelligence, sources confirmed. The initial unmasking led to other surveillance, which led to other private citizens being wrongly unmasked, sources said.
"Unmasking is not unprecedented, but unmasking for political purposes ... specifically of Trump transition team members ... is highly suspect and questionable,” an intelligence source told Fox News. “Opposition by some in the intelligence agencies who were very connected to the Obama and Clinton teams was strong. After Trump was elected, they decided they were going to ruin his presidency by picking them off one by one."
