He did nothing after we added two rounds of sanctions and finally expelled our diplomats after we did a third round of them.
Sounds like an appropriate response

No idea why they continue to put sanctions towards Russia when you have bigger problems such as the Syrian Civil War and North Korea to deal with. The two countries have been at it for a long time. I actually wonder if we will ever see Russia and the US ever get along, I'm not too certain as both countries have different views on international policy.

Seems like Russia and the United States will never have "good blood" between them, this has been a thing ever since the Cold War. What's surprising to me is that Russia/U.S. were allies during the second World War and then, the conflict of the Cold War created a fracture between these two, even though U.S. soldiers and USSR soldiers never really got into direct battles.

Yup. My Uncle once said that Russia and the US would never be in good relations, at least not in a good while. Kind of agree with him here lol.

Not really a dick move, seeing as how the strengthened sanctions against Russia on behalf of the United States have severed Russian-American relations even more.

As Cohle somewhere above me had mentioned, it seems that Trump has gotten tired of being called "Russia's puppet" by the Democrats and some part of the world and he's decided to strengthen his stance against Russia. It isn't a terrible move.
