Why does Russia want Donald Trump to be president?

Answer 1

Start with understanding Russia's plan:

Among their goals is undermining democracy, journalism, promoting racism, sowing chaos/instability, separatism, and undermining general trust in public institutions. They've been doing this in many nations lately; notably Britain, leading to Brexit.

Also understand that Putin hates Hillary Clinton, particularly since she called out Russia's elections, embarrassing Putin and leading to widespread protests:

They also have the ability to control or strongly influence Trump. He has many ties to Russian organized crime:
Trump's mafia, criminal ties & activity

* The reports detailed how the future president gave the project to his daughter Ivanka as a "baby" effort to gain real estate experience, and said it ended up drawing a cast of characters accused of fraud, corruption and kidnapping.

Answer 2

That is nothing but a conspiracy to try to cover up what Hil Liar and Obopmbaba have done with the Russians and the uranium. It will all be out in a few more days.More came out today and Oboombaba knew all about it, and asked to be kept up todate on it all a few days before Trump was elected. It is the biggest crime in the federal government ever, and Hillary mad Oboombaba are involved. Somebody is going to jail, and it is not POTUS Trump.

Answer 3

You never know if the reason is "Bible Prophesy". Russian has ban the peaceful activities of Jehovah's Witnesses. The Russian Orthodox Church is working along side the goernments.

We know according to scripture that governments are going to turn on religion. First false religion, lastly, Jehovah's Witnessess. I think you might want to look a bit deeper than you are thinking. :)

Answer 4

They've got him by the short hairs - and now us too.

Answer 5

Because Hillary would imposed even more sanctions on Russia

Answer 6

$$$

Answer 7

I doubt they actually care. Whoever is in the White House, policy (war, war, war) never changes. The popular "Russiagate" conspiracy theory is as fictional as the "birthergate" conspiracy theory a couple years ago.

Answer 8

Because Russia has tapes of the raunchy, nasty antics of tRump in a Russian hotel with a few prostitutes... probably involving male prostitutes, too... who really knows? tRump and the Russian government, of course.

Answer 9

Putin wants his secret to hair growth (on his chest) seen him on horseback with no shirt ?

Answer 10

Russia couldn't care less who got elected.... they just wanted to create chaos in the election process. And in that respect, they were obviously successful.
