Paul Manafort, the chairman of Donald Trump's presidential campaign who has been linked to a pro-Russia lobbying scandal, has resigned.
[...] Manafort has drawn fire for millions of dollars in undisclosed payments he allegedly received for lobbying efforts on behalf of a pro-Russian Ukrainian political party.
[...] The documents allegedly show funds allocated to Manafort totalling more than $12.7m between November 2007 and October 2012. But the agency emphasised that it had not determined whether Manafort had actually received that money.

And Hillary is directly linked with Russia. Just like any large company, it seems Russia plays any side that might win so that they'll always win.

Stop listening to the Trump people. As has been pointed out, Trump tries to defuse any criticism by accusing his opponents of the same thing - Ted Cruz was "unhinged", etc.

Not sure how Hillary's campaign manager lobbying for Podesta Group is Trump's people trying to defuse anything, considering it came out rather a long time ago by campaign standards. Certainly before this story about Trump.
