Over throw the Russian Government
Install a president in the 90s
Work hand in hand with the current president for years
Supports regime change on their border causing a civil war for a decade then catching them in a brutal war of attrition in a place that is predominantly Russian speaking culturally Russian people
Sanctions Russia and restricts access to global capital causing significant economic harm and forcing them to go into wartime production
Decides to withhold all their money
Refuses to negotiate in good faith
Russia can't seem to end the conflict, get their money back or gain access to US and European markets and capital

Also Americans:

Russia controls the US president! Russia is doing everything bad to the US!
