tRump has not been sanctioned, nor have the Russia 8 of the famous July 4 in Moscow, nor have the Russia Eight in the House who voted to keep trade normal with Russia.

Talk about being un-American and again points to all of these thugs need to be thrown out of office, especially those that went visiting for some reason to Moscow years ago.

...DID NOT sanction Trump. If Trump was so tough on Russia, why didn't Putin sanction him? Why did Putin sanction Hunter Biden? To give a boost to Fox News and the counter narratives they're spinning. Too bad it was so clumsily done that nobody but Trump supporters, and Fox News viewers are the only ones dumb enough to fall for it. Preaching to the choir, it gains them nothing.

So, Putin refrains from sanctioning Trump, sending the obvious message that they're on the same side. That scares trump, so he doubles down with the distraction, and starts talking about Hunter Biden.

This is the equivalent of when Trump got caught with the Access Hollywood tape, so he doubles down, and invites Bill Clinton's rape accusers to the debate right after the Access Hollywood tape was released. That's his style. Make an even more outrageous spectacle, to distract from the real one.
