Why do hard core leftists, those left who still think Hillary won election and believe Obama is best president ever, think Russia is the United States enemy?
  • American Business has billions invested in Russia. This despite Obama's silly sanctions.
  • Russians have billions invested in the USA. This despite Obama's silly sanctions.
  • United States Astronauts need to ride on Putin's Spaceships to go to space station after Obama gutted NASA.
  • ISIS, which rose to power under Obama, is a common enemy of the United States and Russian Federation. Trump promises to work with Russia, instead of against them, to defeat this common foe.
Seems to me this doesn't describe an enemy country.

Beats me. They didn't feel that way about Iran when Kerry and Obama befriended Iran.

I am a right winger and Russia doesn't bother me at all. Their economy is a wreck and they can't get their one aircraft carrier to work.
Russia's Dilapidated Aircraft Carrier Keeps Getting Banned From Ports

Basically, they are smoke and mirrors.

It's Putin that's the issue. Not Russia.

Putin has an 87% approval rating as polled by American pollsters. i.e He's doing right by his people. What is the problem with that?

The left has always been the pro Communist party, case in point, Obama's buddies: Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, Van Jones, The Castros, etc. Why the flip, who knows?

Don't forget, it was Reagan who dubbed Russia "the evil empire". Russia and the US have been clashing over NATO buildup along Russia's borders. When a US Deputy Sec'y of Defense visited Finland a few months ago to discuss Finland's interest in joining NATO, Russian air force violated Finnish airspace twice, to signal their opinion on the matter. This is not the action of a friendly nation. And before you blame NATO buildup on Obama, Bush II was a part of it. It's been US policy consistently, irrespective of which party has been in power.
