The US and CIA have almost zero interest in building stable prosperous and independent democracies. As long as foreign government serves their agenda it does not matter whether it's a democracy or not (Saudi Arabia, the Shah regime in Iran, Pinochet in Chile, autocratic government in South Korea during Cold War). And if a democracy does not follow the US will, well, it's worse for that democracy (see Muslim Brotherhood overthrown by military coup in Egypt and two unconstitutional power changes in Ukraine).
