Russia Today parroting Trump with no fact-checks or clarifications whatsoever

https://www.rt.com/news/377660-trump-russia-getting-along/

Don't hate him, just because he wants everybody to get along... And maybe being tough on Russia is the wrong way to get along... (Wait, didn't Spicey just brag how tough Trump has been on Russia? And now Trump says being tough is wrong?)

No fact-checks whatsoever, no supplemental information to inform the reader what this snippet is even about.
They didn't even mention that the guy who asked the anti-semitism question was jewish. Or that Trump told him to shut up and sit down.



And the comment-section?
Praise for Trump, hatred for the media. One guy suggested that Trump sue the media and force them to come up with proof for their fake news... When one commenter laments Trump's speaking-skills, the other commenters call him stupid and that Trump talks that way because he straight-up tells it like it is...

That Putin is cutting his losses? He did accomplish one goal.. Preventing Hillary Clinton becoming President. ..So, now that the Russian tRump Team is being exposed for massive, ongoing Russian collaboration...Is Putin trying to stop the bleeding for himself?
