I'm not confused about the differences, but Trump -- the man to whom DOJ reports -- asked Ukraine to open formal proceedings to investigate Biden, and invited them to work with the Attorney General. He could have smeared Biden without any of that. He was trying to kickstart a real investigation to make the smear (more) real. Do you not see any difference between that and, say, rage-tweeting?
And suppose it was just smearing. Why are you OK with government officials using their office to smear someone unfairly?
