And... of course, the crowds literally cheer for Putin's message.

This is, as opposed to the technical manipulation of the election in the form of hacking, propaganda specifically pushed in Americans' faces like Russian TV does to its own citizens.

“It is imperative that we focus on the broad disinformation campaign that is already underway,” the officials wrote. “What is taking place in the United States follows a well-known Russian playbook: First leak compelling and truthful information to gain credibility. The next step: release fake documents that look the same. This leaves a discredited actor in the position of denying the authenticity in the merciless court of public opinion, just weeks before an election.”

So... I'm guessing half of the country goes from absolute terror of Russian propaganda, in the process suspending its own actors and other artists, to cheer for it decades later.
