Remember the party of swindlers and thieves? Of course you do. About five years ago, opposition leader Aleksei Navalny branded the ruling United Russia party with that moniker in the run-up to the 2011 State Duma elections.

In fact, it could even be updated to the party of swindlers, thieves, and wise guys.
