Their RT media house seems to do pretty well trying to hook into nativist currents in the US, I'd give them some credit for US rightist skepticism on Ukraine. Still they're probably not as effective as Al Jazeera for a comparison.
I don't think they do too much beyond public-opinion targeting-media and bots (which idk, is that "Russiagate", I thought there was some element of supposed criminality?) because of sanctions and surveillance it's much more work for Russian capital to bribe US officials so I doubt they bother.
