Russophobia often employs the politics of fear and [[demonization]]. For example, Congressman [[David Schiff]] made this statement about the [[fake news]] "Russian hacking" probe,
:"I think of a spider web, with a [[tarantula]] in the middle. And the tarantula, in my view, is [[Vladimir Putin]], who is entrapping many people to do his bidding and to engage with him. And I would include those like [[Roger Stone]] and Carter Page and Michael Caputo and Wilbur Ross and Paul Manafort and [[Rex Tillerson]]."
