And it is infinitely safer to pay off the next president as well, then to remove the safeguards that protect them from government power.

No, if anything, I expect them using Trump to rig the next election even more, so they can control future puppet presidents even better. Not in obvious ways like ballot stuffing. But campaign donations, access to information, etc. And rotate the puppets out before they can get too powerful and dangerous.
