    If the CIA supported it, the media would absolutely fall in line. They probably wouldn't pick out trump as the puppet though, lmao

      Trump is strong evidence that the CIA can't just pull something like this off whenever they want. We know what the CIA's ideal president looks like -- George H.W. Bush -- and Trump is pretty far from that on about every conceivable dimension. He would have never made it into office if the CIA had the type of power you're suggesting.
