It doesn’t surprise me that you would write someone off as a conspiracy theorist, so I don’t take much issues with your opinion on that.
There is most certainly foreign issues imposing their will on the US, some are successful some are not. this is no different than another country, it’s how Geo-politics works.
When Trump meets with putin, both sides will try to impose there policies on each other.
Then there is the darker side of this with foreign propaganda being injected into things like social media to influence the opinion of the general public.
You don’t understand that the USA is the global hegemon. It does not get manipulated by other countries. It either manages to dominate or it does not. There is no scenario where other countries have the power they need to actually dominate the US domestically in any sphere.
The dominant producer of propaganda globally is the USA, both domestically and abroad. Not a single country on the planet has the networks, the apparatus, the number of people, and the continuous propaganda history that the USA has. No “foreign” actor has any chance of competing fully against US propaganda.
