DCCC, Liberal dark money groups, etc. Have been pouring money into Republican primaries, trying to get primary wins for candidates they see as more easily beatable in the general election.
There's a number of reasons this should be considered problematic by dems.
1. Hypocrisy. They are "russia" here. They are spending money to influence an election that isn't theirs.
2. It's how Hillary got Trump Elected. Hillary ran a pied-piper campaign that highlighted Trump, got news networks to focus on trump, because they thought Trump would be easier to beat than other GOP primary candidates. Well, they succeeded in the primary, then lost to Trump, effectively creating the monster they railed against for the next 4 years.
3. They are supporting candidates THEY think are dangerous. (See #2.) They try to get these candidates to win their primary, but they tell us again how dangerous these candidates are.
