His very first visit the morning after his inauguration was to CIA headquarters. He stood in front of the wall of nameless heroes, many having died at Russian hands, and made a fool of himself.

Those people, above all, are not going to readily start to dance with our new friend Putin. While I certainly don't wish for a war with Russia, what they have done in our election (known inside the CIA before it came out in public!) is certainly a hostile act. And I'm sure many of these people regard our current President as a Russian tool, if not totally in the pocket of Putin.
