Russia did nothing to get Trump elected, it is total fabrication a for the reasons I listed in my other post. As Putin has said many times; "Presidents come and go and the American policies remain the same." 

Alleged Russian government sources were behind the Trump dossier, or did that fabrication fall down the memory hole too. How did that help Trump?  

All presidents since Bill Clinton have said they would like to improve relations with Russia. It never happens because the CFR says it will not happen. For foreign policy Presidents are script readers, nothing more. Read between the lines in Obama's transition letter to Trump.

Putin's choice was surrender to globalist corporate/banking interests, as Yeltsin did and which has no easy way out, or rebuild Russia for Russians. That is the sole reason for the relentless media campaigns against him. As for corruption, you overestimate it in Russia and underestimate it in the USA.
