The issue here is that people like Obama and Hillary Clinton seemed loyal to Soviet ideas from the 1970s, not to current Russian ideas.  Putin is no believer in the workers rising up against the middle class, as Marx predicted.  At most Obama could have recreated the Soviet Union here, which he seemed on track to do for a few months until the Democrats lost their supermajority in the Senate.
