As did Ukraine:
Quote:
Donald Trump wasn’t the only presidential candidate whose campaign was boosted by officials of a former Soviet bloc country.
Ukrainian government officials tried to help Hillary Clinton and undermine Trump by publicly questioning his fitness for office. They also disseminated documents implicating a top Trump aide in corruption and suggested they were investigating the matter, only to back away after the election. And they helped Clinton’s allies research damaging information on Trump and his advisers, a Politico investigation found.
A Ukrainian-American operative who was consulting for the Democratic National Committee met with top officials in the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington in an effort to expose ties between Trump, top campaign aide Paul Manafort and Russia, according to people with direct knowledge of the situation.
The Ukrainian efforts had an impact in the race, helping to force Manafort’s resignation and advancing the narrative that Trump’s campaign was deeply connected to Ukraine’s foe to the east, Russia.

But, I suppose they had to do something to protect their investments:

I suspect the Ukrainians knew a Russian controlled White House would be an existential threat to their nation. Very different reason why Putin had done it.

There's evidence Racist perjorative removed there (Assange) was on Russia's payroll. I think it's suspicious that Trump, who had wanted Assange executed, ended up being his cheerleader as soon as Assange (Racist perjorative removed there) was showing favoritism toward Russia.
Besides, I wouldn't trust any of those three even less than I could throw any of them.

I think we're all aware that I'm referring to Assange's white hair and pale complexion. Not a thing racist about it.

The term you used is a racist perjorative for people with european ancestry.
And no, we're not all aware of what you now claim you were referring to, or even whether that "explanation" for the use of the racist term is true.
