If Russia is truly as corrupt as the news implies then that's on brand for current day Republicans, they'd want to emulate that as much as possible (see: attempts to privatize all public services in the US). Russia isn't communist anymore so there's no reason for them to be universally hated by capitalist interests, they got what they wanted.
