It's been so hard to figure out why the Russians would have preferred Trump as president instead of a Clinton, since the Clintons had given millions of dollars to Russia, while Trump gave nothing. in order to make any sense of all the investigations we've had to deal with in D.C. you have to assume that Russia wanted Trump over Clinton, right?
But, this hit me like a thunderbolt. It isn't that Russia preferred Trump to Clinton and that's why they sought and found "dirt" on her and wanted to give it to Trump team members.
No, not at all. The truth of the matter is that Russia assumed Clinton would become president of America, like so many others, and so it was in their best interest to have "dirt" on her, so that they could control her better and thus make her a weak president.
Doesn't that make much more sense than what you hear in the news?
