Why was Uranium One allowed to even go through?

For a second let's just say that the donation of millions of dollars and Bill Clinton getting a $500,000 speakers fee were all one big giant coincidence and had ZERO bearing on Hillary Clinton approving the Uranium One deal (yes I know she wasn't the only one).

My question is this. If Russia is such a strategic threat to US interests, why would any administration allow them to control 1/5 of United States Uranium when Moscow says "This makes Russia stronger"?

Why would the Obama Administration want to make Russia stronger?

Anyone?

Now substitute the name Trump for Clinton and the headlines would be

"Trump takes cash to help Putin control US Uranium production"
