The best way for the Russians to help Trump would be to pretend to support Sanders.

How does that work? You realize that by pretending to support Sanders they would, in fact, be helping Sanders.

Looks like Russia is at it again! This time supporting the outspoken communist Bernie

If you think Bernie is a communist, you've already gone off the tracks. He's no more a communist than Sweden is a communist nation. In fact, he doesn't even want to go as far as Sweden has toward socialism.

But it's important to know that Russia is seeking to cause as much disruption in our elections as possible, to reduce American confidence in our system. Just as they backed Trump because they thought he was the weakest republican, and one least hostile to Russia, they are seeking to help Bernie, because they do not want Biden in the WH.

Wow if this is true they wasted their time, money and efforts.

Trump actually approved lethal aid to Ukraine. Obama did not and Joe was with him in that.

Maybe they thought Trump would allow them to invade the Crimea. Oh that happened under Obama.

Not in Putin's estimation. He considered Clinton to be an enemy, and he had in his pocket a bit of kompromat on Trump. No one in the U.S. at the time knew that Trump was lying when he said that he had no deals in the works with Russia. But Putin knew he did.

Trump actually delayed aid to Ukraine. Not just to help Russia; he also hoped to force Ukraine to help him get dirt on a political rival. On the other hand...

By March 2015, the US had committed more than $120 million in security assistance for Ukraine and had pledged an additional $75 million worth of equipment including UAVs, counter-mortar radars, night vision devices and medical supplies, according to the Pentagon's Defense Security Cooperation Agency.
That assistance also included some 230 armored Humvee vehicles.

Trump withheld the aid until a whistle-blower outed him and he was forced to let it go. While Congress mandated the aid, Trump held off sending it as long as he could. Even his own GAO admitted that he broke the law in trying to stop the aid to Ukraine.

Why Putin hates Hillary

Behind the allegations of a Russian hack of the DNC is the Kremlin leader's fury at Clinton for challenging the fairness of Russian elections.

When mass protests against Russian President Vladimir Putin erupted in Moscow in December 2011, Putin made clear who he thought was really behind them: Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

With the protesters accusing Putin of having rigged recent elections, the Russian leader pointed an angry finger at Clinton, who had issued a statement sharply critical of the voting results. “She said they were dishonest and unfair,” Putin fumed in public remarks

He did business with the Clinton foundation

Show us that.

and got some sweetheart deals on Uranium.

Actually, it was Canadian company, owned by a company in Khazazkistan, not Russia, and they took a beating on the deal...

LONDON (Reuters) - Canadian miner Cameco (CCO.TO) said it will hold down output until uranium prices recover and it could cut production further

...
News like this has stalked the uranium market for years, and while 2018 was a great year for the nuclear fuel, hope for a price pick-up is dim; once an important commodity at resource investing shows, uranium is now mostly ignored. Uranium bulls are as rare as white unicorns\


Fortunately, there is a way to be both a supporter of nuclear energy – still one of the safest and most efficient means of baseload power generation – and ditch uranium, which is quickly becoming a dinosaur of a commodity we think best left alone. We’ve been banging the drums of thorium-based nuclear reactors for a while. In this article we present thorium’s case vis a vis a sick and dying uranium market.
The mine closures... were preceded by 20% production cuts in Kazakhstan, the number one uranium-producing country.
Uranium Sector Won't Catch A Break – ShareCafe

There's been a glut of uranium on the world market for years now.


Surprised? I was, too, when I checked on the accusations. I'm also surprised anyone still believes any of the Russian Uranium hoax.

Trump has been rough on Russia (sanctions) and Putin would love to see Bernie in the White House.
Might even invite him and his wife back for a second honeymoon stay?

Trump has been rough on Russia

Yeah, Putin was outraged that Trump withheld aid from Ukraine.

And I'm sure his feelings were hurt when Trump took his side against American intelligence agencies.
President Donald Trump on Monday publicly sided with Russian President Vladimir Putin over his own intelligence agencies, refusing to condemn the Kremlin for interference in the 2016 election and saying that “I don’t see any reason” why Russia would have hacked Democratic computer servers.

And I'm sure Putin was infuriated when Trump lifted sanctions against one of his buddies:

"Rough on Russia"; there it is.
