Well, they have two choices, don't they? They can do their normal thing and choose who is going to be elected by manipulating behind the scenes, or...
...they can choose to let Trump win.
The question is, what is more Machiavellian of them? After all, Trump is a very successful businessman who is not about to put corporate America in jeopardy. He is going to be for domestic policies that promote business and against policies that stifle it. We're not hearing much of that because Trump is all about Muslims and immigration. He rarely talks about domestic issues, unless you call immigration "domestic."
So from a TPTB standpoint Trump is not exactly a bad choice.

The reason the PTB won't let him in is they can't blackmail him.

If he's got a loan ticket they look at it like a bargaining lever, and
he's already said he won't take one. That makes him unpredictable:
as if the money ever mattered for that one.

That would be devastating.
