There's a difference in kind though.  A domestic crook who wants
to steal high office, at least wants there to be a functioning
nation that gives the high office some power.

A foreign actor has no such constraint on its set of desired
outcomes.

Of course considering the US election news this year, maybe
there really isn't as much of a difference as I'd have thought.
