Whatever embracing you claim went on, there is not sufficient evidence of conspiring. And however much Russia tried to interfere in the election, there is no real evidence of it influencing it or of succeeding in anything other than sowing the kind of massive discord we are witnessing now.

I doubt that Putin wanted to see the U.S. economy grow the way it did before covid. I don't think he wanted to see the unemployment rate increase the way it did, or the stock market to continue its crazy upward bound, or to see the US redo NAFTA and make trade deals with Pacific Rim countries. If he did, maybe he did want what's best for America.
