Putin wanted Trump for self-defense reasons. Plain and simple.

He wants someone strong enough to take the fight to the Jihadists.

He knows he can't do it all on his own for much longer.

Well, he didn't want world war 3 either, so there's that.

If anything on the terrorists front, he didn't want Hillary to continue to arm and train them. Didn't have anything to do with Trump really.

Well our FP is a disjointed joke, but Putin and Russia have done frick-all against Jihadists when compared to the US and its partners.

You want to tally a body count? Propping up Assad, while a greater good in the end, does not equal fighting a war on terror. Russia has done relatively little to target ISIL and AQ and their affiliates.

He knows that Trump will pull the plug on funding and arming ISIS and that will end them.

He likely wants someone to stop the US funding of them too.

No, Putin wants to undermine American institutions. It's why Russia creates a lot of the fake news that's all over the Internet. It's why Russia pays an army of internet trolls to try to shape discourse. And it's why Putin actively supported a reality TV star (someone who probably has narcissistic personality disorder) for President.
