Unless this is an elaborate hoax, I'm not buying that this election was the same as the ones before. They could have gotten their person of choice or someone at least acceptable in without destroying the credibility of their own propaganda piece.
Sorry, but you are making this way too simplistic when it is actually a lot more complicated.
Who is?
Their propaganda machine was at the lowest ebb of credibility it had seen in a hundred years. That was going
in to this election. There was nothing left to destroy.
You are the one making it more complicated than it is. That propaganda machine is their tool. It is a means to their ends. It is not the ends themselves.
If a mechanic breaks his wrench, he will turn around and use that broken wrench as a hammer. Why would he not? It's his tool, and if he can get some use out of it, he will. The only reason not to use a wrench as a hammer is you might break it, and then it won't be useful as a wrench any more. If it's already useless as a wrench, the mechanic will wield it as a hammer in a heartbeat. Likewise, if a propaganda machine is not swaying people to do as it says, but moving people to do just the opposite, they will use that propaganda machine for reverse psychology. Wouldn't you? If you were using your voice to tell a child what you wanted done, and the child was doing the exact opposite, would you not use your voice to tell the child not to do what you wanted done?
Reality is, Donald Trump was the beneficiary of about a trillion dollars' worth of free publicity. You saw Ron Paul and Rand Paul not get a thousand dollars' worth of free publicity out of them. They Who Must Not Be Named were never mentioned. And you refuse to bow to the reality of
that.
But it's all good. You always did have a high tolerance for getting laughed at.
They didn't need Donald Trump to win. They didn't need to put their credibility on the line. They have plenty of shills. Hillary, Jeb, Rubio, all highly acceptable to the deep state. Your argument makes zero sense.
When the voters send a clear message that they will only vote for someone they
think is not a puppet, then the puppeteers find some puppet who can convince the voters that he isn't really a puppet. It's too late for the known puppets (with names like Clinton and Bush giving them away) to pull that trick.
I know, this is too adult a puzzle for some people. But I have to say it anyway.
