I've heard that Hillary went to Russia in 2010 (when she was Secretary of State) and she might have said or done things that annoyed Putin. This may have been the genesis of Putin not liking Hlilary? But it's possible Putin disliked Hillary a long time before then.

Can one conclude that Hillary "interfered in the Russian election"? That could be used as a defense for Putin who is accused of interfering in ours. BTW the next Russian election after that was 2012.

Bill and Hillary have always supported the EU, NAFTA, etc., which is why Putin doesn't like them. It's also a reason Trump doesn't like them.

The State Department under Clinton was meddling to one degree or another in both Ukrainian and Russian elections. PBS's Frontline has excellent two part story on it, "Putin's Revenge"


https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/putins-revenge/


Left, right or middle anyone would have difficulty criticizing most of what is produced by Frontline.

Does Putin need a reason like a backstabbing incident not to like Hillary?



At the root of the whole Russian collusion thing is this question. Why would Putin bet on the loose cannon gamble that is Trump when Hillary was a sure thing that had proven over the years that she was more than willing to play the DC game of back door politics for a price?



Is half the country taking crazy pills that they cannot see this?

So when Putin expressly said that he wanted Trump to win last month... ?

I heard this statement and I'm trying to find if it's true or not. It was on Michael Medved's show. If it's true or false I'll accept it.

One thing I know is Hillary had the "reset button" in 2009 and it had the wrong Russian word on it.

I thought Putin favored Trump because Trump and Putin don't like NAFTA, EU, environmental alliances, etc.
Also Trump was for Brexit and Hillary wasn't.

How did they decide Mueller would be the head of the investigation? He is a Republican, by the way. And also, James Comey is a Republican.
