They're not trying to actually get states to secede, it's part of a larger campaign to cause as much tension and division in the west as possible. The more divided the west is, the better able Russia is to expand it's influence.
And I should care about Russian influence because...? Lilke they're certainly failing to influence America considering how Trump is acting...

...isn't having them on 24-hour alert kinda standard? Before this did they get to go home and chill for a few hours every day, and we were just like "well hope the Russkies don't try and smack us tonight"? That seems kinda sketch.
Jeez, it'd be like a modern version of Ra or Huitzilopotchli's nightly voyage through the underworld or whatever.

Because they're trying to sow discontent and raise tensions in the West, in the hopes of dividing us and capitalizing on our division to revive their imperial ambitions and relive their glory days. You should care because they're undermining our political systems in the hopes of destabilizing our political systems and radicalizing the populace, which ideally would lead to greater division and tension and conclude with the fracturing of the West. This is why whether or not Trump is Putin's lap dog is irrelevant, simply by being himself he causes increased tension and political polarization, as well as hurting US credibility and straining our foreign relations. And if none of that works, the Russians are more apt to throw weight behind right-wing nationalists, which from what I've seen are not your cup of tea. So, you have a vested interest, if only politically, for keeping Russia from meddling in our politics.

How the fuck would raising tensions improve the state of Russia? How is Russia destabilizing the political systems?
Why would it make them a better nation? Sounds like a conspiracy theory. Putin is wasting his time if he thinks the west can be fractured the way you're talking. Not to mention our tensions and discontent towards Government is totally justified because our government is fucking us over.
Again this all sounds like denomization, turning Putin into this unstoppable boogyman, in order to kick start a new Cold War.

I have contact with Sarah Palin and she says she overheard Vladimir Putin say that he will "Annex the United States, for the glory of Mother Russia!", and that the entire Russian navy is stationed near Alaska for a planned naval invasion.
You can trust me, I have a degree in investigative journalism from Buzzfeed University.

Trump, being the brilliant person he is, took to twitter immediately to essentially call her a liar.
I am sure the "support the military!" Crowd will not take kindly to that, right?
