Not only were the amount of ads bought miniscule, Russia simply wouldn't have the ability to target them nearly as well as the Trump campaign could. While there was a conspiracy theory going around on social media that Russia had used hacked copies of the electoral registrations to micro-target voters, it was ridiculous - political campaigns have official access to that data and have to spend huge amounts of volunteer time collecting enough info to do even basic targeting because it simply doesn't exist otherwise. (Which is why a newer conspiracy theory says the Trump campaign gave them the targeting info.)
