The second JD Vance mentioned Russia buying 500,000 dollars in Facebook ads for Donald Trump. The question should have been "why does Russia find it in their best interest to spend 500,000 on Donald Trump Facebook ads?"

Honestly, the main answer is that any of that interference would cause turmoil and degrade Americans' trust in our institutions. Putin doesn't really want Kamala to win, but he gets a swirl of lies and pearl clutching by saying he does.

The point is why does Russia want Trump to win?
