Miranda Seymour agreed, telling CNN she has no problem with Trump once suggesting Russia should find and release former rival Hillary Clintons emails from her private server.
I think that all of our superpowers in the world interfere with everybodys elections, and if by bringing out emails for someone as evil as Hillary not being president, by all means bring it out, Seymour argued.
She added it was absolutely okay that Trump asked for Russia to hack Clintons emails.
Absolutely, because its the truth, Seymour argued. I feel like our media is liberal in the United States, if our people arent going to do it, lets let Russia do it for us.

Liberalism (most especially the "liberal" media) and the Democratic Party are the ultimate enemy. Not China, not Russia, not North Korea. So to consumers of right-wing media, Russians are preferable and more "patriotic" than their own fellow Americans. They've been listening to this demonization of the left for 3 decades now.
