I actually don't believe either one is more laughable than the other and they're hardly the only two options available. The optimist in me would like to believe there is no possibility of Russian collusion and that all media and politicians are truthful, think we all know different though. I'll also point out that I haven't been following the collusion angle whatsoever so bear that in mind.
Him being a puppet is much more laughable though. Especially if the claim is he'd have Trump sell guns to the Ukraine, etc. just to throw people off lol.
The more plausible and sane explanation is that he's not actually Putins puppet and that sometimes the decisions he makes work out to Putins advantage and sometimes they don't.
