I'm not going to say with 100% accuracy, but I think the Dems under Obama (Hills included) were interfering with his elections as well. 

Why he behaved better with DJT in office? I have no idea. Maybe he felt Trump was more of a wild card than the Just Do Somethings Obama and Biden.

But Trump was right about lack of NATO spending. 

Anyways maybe it stems from the R's being war machines. Maybe Trump cas ask Putin why when he gets a chance while he's talking to his good buddy and getting advice on how to convert us to an Authoritarian state. 

It was the assessment of US intel back in 2016 that Putin interfered in the election to help Trump win.

This makes sense, as Putin's goal has been to undermine democracy in Western Europe as well, and to weaken, if not break up,
the NATO alliance, and Trump admires Putin. Now even the possibility of a Trump re-election has set our allies into a tizzy of contingency planning.

Putin has this year said he thinks Biden would be better for Russia, as in predictable. That hardly makes sense if Trump would pull the US
out of Ukraine and weaken NATO. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/15/world/europe/putin-biden-trump-us-election.html
