Trump and Manafort in moneybed with them, but imo it's just that Putin would really prefer Trump, because Putin thinks he could more easily have his way with Ukraine and the Baltic States
Since Will is one of the top neocon cheerleaders, and that they're casting their lot with Hillary (see the piece in attached link), it's no surprise that he'd throw in with the latest DNC tin hat theory.
Interesting how phonies like Will are finally showing their true colors as agents of the democrat party since Trump was selected to run for president. Blaming Russia for Hillary's felonies is like blaming the FBI for the Boston Marathon bombing. It doesn't make sense unless you are angry and frustrated and willing to defend the criminal behavior of a political candidate.
