Why would Russia want Trump to be in office?

It was the Obama led democrats that allowed them to annex Crimea via force without consequences.

It is in Russia’s best interest that our military be as weak as possible. Something the democrats will undoubtedly do.

Russia depends a great deal on exploiting neighboring countries lack of natural gas reserves by threatening to cut of the supply from Russia if said country doesn’t do what Russia wants. If the Democrats were in power, the oil export ban would be reinstated, and you can bet they’d do their best to eliminate all petroleum exports.

Why would Russia ever want Trump/conservatives in power?

Could be disinformation. They knew the democrats would freak out and Russia wants the country divided as much as possible.

Probably because once the C_A gets de-nutted across the globe, the USA will be easier to deal with.

Reverse psychology. Make voters think Trump is a Russian stooge so they'll vote for the real Russian stooge.

Watch Frontline's "Putin's Revenge". Putin despises Hillary; and knows that he can work with Trump. But that Trump will drive a hard deal. Better to deal that to fight.

Putin wants to sew discord and a loss of
faith in America among the U.S. electorate. He views Trump as a useful foil. Plus, he can get away with shite By goading Trump to
Make rash decisions in foreign policy and ignore advice from the professionals who know what they’re doing. .

What rash foreign policy decisions has Putin goaded Trump into? Killing terrorists? Why should he listen to the 'Professionals', when they've been wrong on just about everything.

Outside of his potential dislike of hillary, and who would blame him. Was basically my point above.

This ^^^^^ is possibly the most ironic post of 2020 thus far. You claim Putin wants to sow political unrest in America and it’s you and your TDS fueled loon compadres that have delivered on Putin’s desires beginning the night of 2016 GE! Y’all still haven’t quit throwing your tantrums from the 2016 GE arse kicking.

Trump has been saying he wants to pull back America from its role as the international go-to enforcer (on multiple levels) for years. That leaves a power vacuum which Putin wants to fill.

Same reason Russia was pushing for Brexit. A weak and divided Europe what they have always wanted.

Not that any of this is necessarily a negative for the US, but it's a big positive for Russia.

Yes

So far that has been a big mistake if true. Trump has been a thorn in Russia and China’s side.

You mean the “professionals” like the Biden and Kerry’s sons who have “jobs” tied to Russian oligarchs where they get paid millions of dollars and in return we send our tax dollars over there to make their natural gas sector better? Or colonel vindman who’s expert opinion was undoubtedly not in the best interest of our country? Or could it be the whistleblower who held meetings in the whitehouse with the Ukrainian officials that were tied to the Biden and Kerry’s?

Putin may hate Hillary, but he has so much dirt on her that he owns her.
