1987. Moscow. Gorbachev: The system is in crisis, comrades. Putin: I have a plan. Gorbachev: Yes, colonel? Putin: We dismantle the USSR & pretend to be defeated but cultivate a buffoonish real estate fraud as an asset. By 2016, he'll be elected president & destroy America.

It would be pretty funny if Chait had written anything absurd enough to skewer in his piece that day.

There’d be nothing absurd about the Soviets cultivating a rich US citizen with no specific use in mind, and nothing absurd about the Russians inheriting that asset. What’s absurd is your belief that it is implausible enough to make a good joke. But, yeah, Jeet, you’re hilarious.
