Considering there are Republicans trying to cover things up I'm beginning to wonder if their destructive policies were influenced by Russia.

Physicists take first step toward cell-sized robots (w/video)
With postdoctoral researcher Marc Miskin at the helm, the team has made a robot exoskeleton that can rapidly change its shape upon sensing chemical or thermal changes in its environment. And, they claim, these microscale machines – equipped with electronic, photonic and chemical payloads – could become a powerful platform for robotics at the size scale of biological microorganisms.

Not entirely, no. But I do think they were a major factor. Of course Hillary's campaigning ended up being rather incompetent which didn't help either.

Okay. Now that I've had time to clear my head. Here's some motives based on what's known so far.
* The Kremlin views the ideal of a liberal/democratic world order and views an U.S. and EU as key players to destabilize as a perceived threat to Russia in general and Putin's leadership in particular. Of note: after the USSR ended the leaders of Russia up until Putin were abysmal. Putin might be corrupt and half-assing leadership but he's viewed favorably by the populace (and possibly the Kremlin and Putin himself) because all the previous post-Soviet leaders were no-assing it. So a hunch of my own is that Russia's government thinks all of its eggs are in one basket (Putin) and think that if that basket falls over then Russia is done for. And what better way to ensure an end of democratic ideals than to wreck economies and screw up politics in countries that pride themselves on such?
* Putin himself has an extreme dislike of Hillary Clinton because he thinks that she helped foment 2011-2012 protests against his governance. So he'd have a preference for the opposition in general.

It wouldn't surprise me if the RNC was a little too cozy with the Kremlin. Just look at what their policies tend to do.

No problem! I'm thinking about making software I write (if I ever do) CopyFair. I'll probably start with PEARL and might use the Software Reciprocity License if I try a software business. ;)
