Election meddling is not needed considering the extent of legalized bribery in Congress which for PC reasons is called "lobbying". You don't need the President if you have Senators and Congresspersons that have mastered the art of not passing any bills and falling asleep on CSPAN. Influencing a presidential pick rarely pays off unless they are a "disruptor" who promises to restructure the civil service and diplomatic offices. Those are the groups that foreign nations deal with. They want influence over those because they are the intermediaries that can change a President's mind on an issue.
