In my opinion, Putin wants to limit the influence and rise of Islam. He knows the entire current U.S. government - Democrats and establishment Republicans - have been purchased by Saudi (and other Islamic) money. I think he’d rather have the U.S. as ally rather than an enemy in that effort. To have that, he needs to break the iron hold of Islamic money that is making the U.S. office-holders wealthy beyond imagination. Helping Trump beat them may be the way to break Islam’s hold over the U.S. government.

What an interesting and logical take on the issue! I was skeptical that Putin would allow a release or even admit they had the emails. But this reasoning makes sense. The Democratic party has gone so far left they are endangering all non-Islamic societies. If, indeed, Putin has taken the side of the Republicans woe be unto Democrats playing around taking sexual selfies and doing drugs. All of this will “find” its way into the public domain. Democrats won’t be able to do anything illegal or immoral without it becoming public knowledge. (I’ve got to buy a popcorn maker.)
Or getting concessions from Hillary if she is the guaranteed winner.
I recall that Soros was also mentioned in the emails with regard to having easy access to Hillary. I wouldn’t doubt that Putin might like to pull him down a few notches too....assuming the Russian emails reveal a bit more than has already been seen.
Interesting and thoughtful analysis.
