Dear
The Original Tree, thank you for appreciating my post, I have to admit: I was surprised. I 100% agree with you: information is the only strong weapons against propaganda. I disagree Kremlin wanted Hillary to win, everybody in Russia was sure: if Hillary wins she’ll start a hot war with Russia. In fact, I know several Russians in USA (American citizens) who have never voted but went ahead, got registered and voted for Trump. One of them has even washed her kitchen with champagne after Trump’s victory. Kremlin celebrated his victory as well. They kept saying: "We have a careful optimism about US/Russia relationship" because Trump was the only candidate who declared good relationship with Russia. Sure enough, Deep State puppets in US Congress immediately hobbled him with all kinds of means.

Clinton was (and is) a lot more Deep State’s bi*ch than Kremlin’s. Deep State has been keeping her on a huge hook for a lot of her crimes. Clinton Body Count, her emails, even that is enough to blackmail her and to make her do what Deep State needs. Everybody knows that, including Kremlin, they are smart people and had no illusions about any possibilities to make Hillary “behave”. For years Kremlin keeps saying: “It’s a lot easier to work with Republicans than with Democrats, Dems are unpredictable and unreliable.” Easy to prove. Remember, Obama’s famous phrase “I’ll be more flexible after elections”? Guess what, he lied as always. He started harming Russia as never before (doing what his Deep State bosses were telling him to). The most harmful to Russia was the coup in my home country of Ukraine and installing anti-Russian puppet regime there, which has been successfully causing problems for Russia (an incident in Black sea just recently) and demanding the whole world to keep punishing Russia for Kiev’s crimes.
In the new cold war that opposes Russia to the USA, Ukraine is a decisive pawn. A tactical pawn to contain Putin’s ambitions.

Zakharova wrote that the outgoing president did not manage to leave
“any” major foreign policy achievements as part of his legacy and instead of
“putting an elegant period” to his two presidential terms has
“made a huge blot” with his latest
decision to impose more sanctions on Russia, expelling 35 Russian diplomats and closing two diplomatic compounds in the US.
“Today America, the American people were humiliated by their own president. Not by international terrorists, not by [the] enemy’s troops. This time Washington was slapped by own master, who has complicated the urgent tasks for the incoming team in the extreme,” Zakharova wrote, labeling the current administration
“a group of foreign policy losers, bitter and narrow-minded.”

Clinton would be even worse than Obama.
It took me quite a while but I’ve found some important information about Putin, Trump, Clinton you may be interesting in and some Putin’s quotes about Trump. I have been watching Putin since 2000, know all his speeches and by my observation Putin always does what he says or promises. He’s a very reliable politician and would be a great ally for Trump. That’s the worst Deep State’s nightmare though.
If Trump moves to heal ties with Russia, establishment will oppose him fiercely – Stephen Cohen
The Clinton foundation is also linked directly to Ukrainian oligarchs:
Between 2009 and 2013, including when Mrs. Clinton was secretary of state, the Clinton Foundation received at least $8.6 million from the Victor Pinchuk Foundation, according to that foundation, which is based in Kiev, Ukraine. It was created by Mr. Pinchuk, whose fortune stems from a pipe-making company. He served two terms as an elected member of the Ukrainian Parliament and is a proponent of closer ties between Ukraine and the European Union.

In contrast to Russia a number of leaders of countries which are US allies were openly campaigning for Hillary Clinton. Very active in that respect were Angela Merkel, Francois Hollande, Theresa May and the leaders of other European states.
"European countries’ officials went as far as demonizing Donald Trump," Lavrov said.

Stephen Cohen: an “
Intelligence Community Assessment” and the anti-Trump
“dossier” compiled by a retired UK intelligence officer, Christopher Steele. The “core narrative” of both was, of course, that Putin’s Kremlin had intervened in the 2016 presidential election—essentially an “
attack on America”—in order to damage Hillary Clinton’s candidacy and abet Trump’s. At the time, a few critics questioned the authenticity of the ICA and the dossier, but for political and media Russiagaters, they instantly became, and have remained, canons, despite their deficit of facts and logic. Reread today, in light of what is now known, they are examples of the adage “
rubbish in, rubbish out.”
Anyone who has studied Putin as a leader closely and objectively over nearly 20 years understands there is little if any logic in these explanations for the motives attributed to him. He may have intensely disliked Mrs. Clinton, and thought she acted highly improperly in 2011 by meddling in Russia’s elections, but nothing in his long-observed political character suggests he would have acted petulantly to get “
payback” with such a risk involved. Undertaking such a Russiagate operation in the United States on behalf of Trump would surely become known and thereby greatly favor Clinton electorally. A man said to be an exceedingly cunning “
former KGB officer” would certainly have understood that—and even if he so favored Trump, would never have authorized it.
But the larger fallacy derives from failing to understand Putin’s mission ever since he came to power in 1999–2000, and which he has never ceased stating: to rebuild Russia, whose state had collapsed twice in the 20th century, as a stable, prosperous great power, foremost at home but also abroad. Despite the new Cold War and all that has disrupted Russia’s relations with the West, Putin persists in this goal, to the great consternation of his hard-line critics. In May, for example,
he said: “
To attract capital from friendly companies and countries, we need good relations with Europe and with the whole world, including the United States.” And in June, amid heightened tensions over Russiagate and other scandals,
he amplified: “
It is not our aim to divide anything or anybody in Europe…. On the contrary, we want to see a united and prosperous European Union because the European Union is our biggest trade and economic partner. The more problems there are within the European Union, the greater the risk and uncertainties for us.” Is this really a Russian leader who would risk his entire mission and legacy on tawdry “
kompromat” on behalf of an American candidate and then president whose caprice had unnerved the Kremlin only slightly less than it did Washington? A leader who would consider that he had “
won” as a result of Russiagate?
Russiagate’s ‘core narrative’ has always lacked actual evidence - Stephen Cohen
Stephen Cohen: We do know, however, that there has been fierce
opposition in the US political-media establishment to President Trump’s policy of “
cooperating with Russia,”
including in US intelligence agencies, particularly the CIA and FBI - and at high levels of his own administration.
‘US Congress has no Russian policy other than sanctions’ – Stephen Cohen
Russia’s reemergence under Putin as a conservative country in which national traditions and the Orthodox Church are respected has led to a bitter sense of betrayal. That makes Putin, as
articulatedby Hillary Clinton, leader of the worldwide
“authoritarian, white-supremacist, and xenophobic movement”who is
“emboldening right-wing nationalists, separatists, racists, and even neo-Nazis.” No Soviet leader, not even Joseph Stalin, was ever portrayed in such diabolical fashion in US media and government circles the way Putin is.

Despite the fact that elections in the US are over and ended with a "
solid win" for the Republican candidate, an intense political struggle continues in the US, the Russian president observed, adding that there are certain forces that aim "
to undermine the legitimacy of the president-elect."
"I have an impression they practiced in Kiev and are ready to organize a Maidan in Washington, just to not let Trump take office," Putin said, apparently referring to anti-government protests in the Ukrainian capital in 2014, which resulted in the leadership being ousted.
Those
anti-Trump forces in the US also want to "bind hand and foot" the newly-elected leader, Putin added. He said that in this way, they aim to interfere with the domestic and international policies outlined in Trump's presidential campaign.
By doing so, these forces "
severely harm US interests," Putin said.
People who stand behind "fabrications" being used against Trump "are worse than prostitutes."
"
They have no moral scruples," he said.
‘Worse than prostitutes’: Putin slams those behind Trump ‘leak’
Megyn Kelly: Let me ask you about
President Trump.
Vladimir Putin: I think he is an experienced person, a businessman with very extensive experience and he understands that if you need to partner with someone, you must treat your future or current partner with respect, otherwise nothing will come of it
. I think this is a purely pragmatic approach. This is my first point.
Second, even though this is his first term as President,
he is a quick study, and he understands perfectly well that trading accusations or insults at our level is a road to nowhere. It would just mean depriving our countries of their last chance for dialogue, simply the last chance. This would be extremely unfortunate.
You may have noticed that
I, for my part, show respect to him . There is one thing I would like to say: like it or not – we may dislike certain things as well –
he does his best to keep the election promises that he made to the American people. So, he is consistent in this sense. I think that, in fact, this is the only proper way to show respect for the people who voted for him.
He has strong leadership qualities, of course, because he takes responsibility when he makes decisions. To reiterate, whether some people like his decisions or not, he still goes ahead and does it. This, of course, is a sign of leadership qualities.
