Strange. It seems that the printed story in the printed home-delivered paper was longer than this internet version. And this version is missing an important sentence I wanted to quote.

But, from the printed paper: "Russian President Vladimir Putin intensely disliked (Hillary) Clinton because he was convinced that when she was secretary of state she had promoted anti-Putin, pro-democracy efforts in his country."
-
Could it be that any alleged "Russian interference" in the elections came about, not from a Russian-Trump collusion, but unilaterally from Russia simply as a "Hey, Hillary, you were interfering in our affairs; I will interfere in yours"?

Quite often the simplest explanation is the correct one.....and the simplest explanation is just that: "Hey, Hillary, you were interfering in our affairs; I will interfere in yours"....unilaterally...."because your interference in Russia caused me (Putin) to intensely dislike you."
