LOL - it’s a sad state of affairs when the Russians understand American politics better than American liberals. . .but that is the real reason that Hillary lost. However, they were mistaken in that Donald won. The tea parties have been working toward this objective for 8 years and Donald Trump was the only person willing to take up the mantle. Kudos to him and to the American people for recognizing a leader of people over a tyrant.
Russians have been studying America for a long time.
In the Soviet period, Georgi Arbatov of the America Institute advised Soviet leaders.
Americans have never made a genuine attempt to understand Russia but Russians are well-acquainted with Americans.
