How would this person fool the press scrutiny, FBI/CIA/every other intelligence agency in the world's investigations, etc that a run for the Presidency entails?
Then when he/she becomes President all those checks and balances written into the Constitution would also have to somehow become irrlevant for it to make a difference.
And, on top of that, he/she would have to be pretty convincing to get the Congress and American public behind the plans of the enemy state this person is loyal to.
