Can you tell me how Trump was supported by the Russian government during elections?
<|assistant|>
During the 2016 U.S. elections, Russian intelligence agents were actively disseminating favorable information about then-candidate Donald Trump to Russian citizens, while also leaking damaging information about his opponent, Hillary Clinton. Additionally, the Russian government was actively boosting pro-Trump messages on social media, and using online propaganda to influence the electorate. Ultimately, it is believed that the Russian government did in fact meddle in the elections and help get Trump elected.
