Do the Democrats secretly want Trump to win?

This may verge somewhat into the land of conspiracy theory, but I've been thinking a lot about the Democratic primaries and how it seems, at least to me, that the Democratic party might want Trump to win.
The reason I believe this is the case is how things have been playing out with Biden. It seens obvious that big money influences candidates who have dropped out into supporting Biden, despite having originally been critical of his last (Harris, for example). But the DNC is clearly trying to get Biden as the nominee rather than Bernie, and have gone out of their way to burie the three most potential threats to the DNC's power in Bernie, Tulsi, and Yang.
My thinking is this: Get the fix in for Biden through amalgamating former candidate's supporters, screw Bernie over a second time. Knowing how Biden is old, "low energy", infamously creepy, has a tainted past, and is possibly senile, Biden won't stand a chance against Trump. If Trump was able to chop multiple Republican candidates up into little pieces in 2016, Trump will have no issue at all with Biden.
So, in my opinion, I think the Democrats want Trump. They desperately need Trump to stay in for 4 more years. They need to keep up the status quo, they need to keep the power and big money they have, and more so, Trump would give them everything they want. Trump will continue his warhawkishness, (which the DNC loves), the media will continue to have high ratings, and blue voters will continue to have the Trump boogeyman to hate and fear, thus enabling the current establishment to stay in power through their support by pretending as though they're fighting Trump and the Republicans.
The impeachment hearing begins to make a lot more sense if that's the case. Because if the DNC doesn't actually want Trump removed from office, then in knowing the impeachment hearing would go nowhere means the DNC wasn't using it as a way to remove Trump, but rather empower themselves as the "good guys" while purposely bolstering Trump, increasing his approval rating, and making him even stronger going into the 2020 elections.
Mark my words: Trump will win this easily, and even when it does seem at some point like Biden is gaining the upperhand, the media will turn on him somehow and/or a fabricated controversy will kneecap Biden's campaign. This is probably why Hunter Biden and his ties to Ukraine were suddenly dredged up out of nowhere. I predict Hunter Biden may be the trump card (pun slightly intended) that the establishment (both Republicans and Democrats) will need.

Oh my gosh, I felt this, too! I still believe they let him win. Kamala was so very obviously a terrible candidate. Just not smart and doesn’t speak well at all. And there was a window of time where the media kind of said some nice things about him. So glad someone else noticed this.

I don't buy that Democrats "want" Trump to win, but he's a convenient scapegoat for their abuses if they lose. Also, it's not exactly conspiracy theory to say that big businesses play both sides of the political spectrum, so of course the left arm of the creature wants the right arm to win

Not democrats. The system wanted him to win.
