Man I don't think so in this case. Looks like an old picture. If anything the Democrats were more friendly with Russia before Russia started "annexing" Ukraine in 2014.
And that's the point. Democrats were polled as being more favorable towards Russia prior to Trump. After Trump, Republicans polled as being more favorable towards Russia.
Basically Communism and all that was the bogeyman for the Right for decades until suddenly it became more politically viable to change their stance and support their candidate. It was a symbol for decades until it suddenly wasn't, and that is because Trump then became such a symbol and overtook so many others.
