Putin loves Merkel and the liberals in the EU. They are following policies that Putin would mostly implement himself.
The greatest threat to Putin is a more conservative EU.
So, Putin’s endorsement of the conservative policies allows the liberals to claim conservatives are in the pocket of Russia.
This is what Putin did for the Democrats. He praised Trump and allowed them to say Trump is in Putin’s pocket.
Putin does not want Trump as POTUS....he would have preferred Clinton as she can be bought and is more aligned with Putin’s communism.
This is all strategery.

Totally disagree with your analysis here.

Great points. Putin should never be believed or trusted.
