That's parallel to how Republicans have been fighting, ever since Nixon, to change the whole system so that wouldn't happen again. Change the media landscape with Fox etc., and change the legal landscape by packing the courts through the Federalist Society. Patient, well-funded, and corrupt.

At the moment, they are succeeding, but the tide is turning.
