Democrats hate Russia because it is white and Christian. We know this because democrats accuse conservatives of defending Russia because it is white and Christian.
Not really so, in fact if you look at the Obama administration under McFaul they actually loved Russia. Honestly all of this can be traced back to the huckster McFaul's totally failed "Russian Reset". Even the videos of him pushing the big goofy reset button have been mysteriously scrubbed from youtube. Most all our current issues with Russia can be traced back to this so-called "expert" who totally trashed the relative calm we'd had in the preceding decade.
And how can we forget the Obama quip to Romney "The 1980's called, they want their foreign policy back"? The repubs could just play that on repeat, but they don't.
McFaul can't even speak Russian well despite supposedly being a professor.
I think the US has about as much to do with Maidan as Russia did in our election: which is to say not much. I'm frankly amazed at the duality view of folks here: the government is incompetent but somehow organized a coup with info warfare. My experience with the government is they couldn't organize a coup out of a wet paper bag.

I read that they mistranslated Reset into something completely wrong in Russian.
That said, the issue was the Maidan coup.
