If you really blame Russia for the current US situation, I have bad news for you. Blaming an external power is a political manipulation 101. Focusing public attention on them is almost always used to hide real structural domestic problems. Soviet Union also loved to shift blame onto the US and modern Russia does it as well. Did that help them to built a better society? External powers can only do so much. Usually most that they can do is to give a little push to processes already existing in society (and the US is a world leading expert at giving such pushes). So my advice would be: look at domestic roots of a problem first, not at foreign powers which try to exploit them.
