In an earlier post this morning, "The lunacy of Trump love," ges provided an interview of a Trump cultist who said the same thing, that Obama is in charge

It actually reminded me more of the constant theorizing during the 2016 GOP primaries, where people were absolutely convinced that there was no way The Powers That Be in the Republican party would intervene to keep Trump from being the nominee. I have no doubt that back in 2016, TPTB in the GOP would have loved to do that to Trump. But both parties have fine-tuned their rules over the last fifty years (the shift from autonomous delegates at party conventions to binding election primaries) to proof them against shenanigans.

So there was no way for them to do that, but quite a few folks were convinced that there had to be someone behind the curtain that had the power to overrule the primary results. But as we all saw, there just wasn't.
