One question Hillary Clinton’s apologists haven’t answered is why Russia would want the more American nationalist candidate to win the presidential election.

Clinton the globalist, it could be argued, would be more willing to capitulate to foreign demands.

Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway bdrove that point home during an appearance on Fox & Friends on Friday.

“Vladimir Putin has had his way with us many times,” Conway said, referring to Obama’s time as presidency.

“Why would Russia want Donald Trump to win the presidency?” she asked.

“Donald Trump is going to increase the defense budget. He’s going to modernize our nuclear capability. He wants to explore oil and gas.

“All of that hurts Russia and emboldens America first,” Conway said.
