I completely disagree with that assessment. What the Republicans want is the complete domination of the American proletariat by the bourgeoisie (i.e, themselves). All the Russians want is to impede the government's ability to project power halfway around the globe. Russia doesn't care about American labor laws, unions, strikes, tax policy, etc, if anything, all things being equal, they'd probably prefer that the workers have more power, as that could be more disruptive to the state.
If you're more preoccupied the with the geopolitical influence of the state than you are with the things I mentioned, then I think your priorities are very out of order. Those are bourgeois concerns, they want to play "The Great Game" because they'll reap the spoils and take the resources of wherever they "bring democracy" to. If their interests are in jeopardy, let them go scramble to look after them, if anything, that's good because they'll be more focused on that than on fucking us over. We should be looking after the interests of our own class.
The American right is, by far, the greatest threat to the American people that exists in the world.
