I have often wondered why animus is the natural state of affairs between Russia and the United States all these decades. Yes, we cling to naturally contrapuntal political systems, but at the same time We the People and They the People share some very basic human instincts. For example, both peoples are romantics at heart. Consider our literature. Unlike the British and the Japanese who can be very pragmatic, Americans and Russians alike favor "happy endings" in our stories. Boy gets girl is a common theme. Look at Crime and Punishment. Boy is an ax murderer and still gets the girl (she follows him to Siberia). We'll take other people's stories and change the endings to fit our needs for romance. People like Hillary seem to want to use the animus as a basis for fear to drive people to support her. Meanwhile, Trump is asking, very reasonably, why can't we try something different? I agree. Why not?

Trump doesn't care about anyone besides himself unlike Hillary Clinton who is actually looking out for Americas best interests.

Your argument isn't going to sway me an inch. The only thing she needs to be is a number while wearing an orange pantsuit behind many layers of concrete and steel.

Truth be told, I have a strong feeling that Putin is on the right side of the ME situation.

I warned you that I have a sick mind and during the presidency of James Earl Carter I said to a Russian Airborne officer “you know you just cannot trust those damned Georgians he replied “in Russia we say the same about Stalin.”
