Truth, facts, reality, don't matter. Only the media narrative is relevant. He doesn't need to trick a single computer scientist, he just needs to provide a story that the media can sell, and magically the rationalists become conspiracy theorists. See: the current POTUS front-runner according to yesterday's Rasmussen poll.

EDIT: I didn't attempt to explain why the establishment/media would like to enshrine his narrative. They really like having a face to their enemies, someone they can ad-hominem and quote out of context to support the global finance agenda.
