The republicans have always distrusted Russia. Hate might not be the right word, but they have always distrusted Russia.

It's the democrats who now blame everything on Russia, and the republicans laugh at the democrats for it. The Democrats have lost their minds!

President Trump being a businessman has always been a negotiator. He doesn't have to like the person he's negotiating with but the entire time he was in his presidency, he had Americans' best interest at heart. Can't say that about the current guy who is a bloodthirsty warmonger.

I would say that, having lived through the cold war, that anti-Russian sentiment was extremely high under Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and Reagan. Cuba and Vietnam were both proxy wars with USSR during the Cold War. I’m sorry you’re too much of a child to remember those days, as well as the McCarthy Red Scare of the 50s. Hate is indeed the correct word. Just go back and watch video footage, newsreels or just look at the films produced during those days. The US literally supplied arms to the Taliban to fight Russia for us. Read some history before making hugely ignorant statements.
