You're arguing with Scripture, not me. I showed you in Scripture.
The Lord puts in power who He wants. It doesn't matter who they are or what they are like. He does it to accomplish His will. Not yours and not theirs.
I didn't just give examples of the 'flood'. I gave you examples of Assyrian, and Babylon who raped and ripped the pregnant women up and killed unmercifully, men women and children. It too was a cleansing. Just like the flood. The point is, God did it. A point you refuse to believe.
It doesn't take much to boggle your mind.

The Most High has the power to appoint and remove any leader He wishes. Im not disputing this. Im disputing every leader was appointed by the Father, specifically the evil ones.
Your basing this theory on Rom 13. your cherry picking this scripture to fit your twisted theory. This is the same poison king lewy told his people to justify starving the masses to death while he and the nobles lived in luxury in versailles.
If the passage means the Father picks evil rulers to rule over us. Then you must also accept we are to submit to them. This would mean if you lived under the rule of herod you would have had to turn Jesus over to the authorities or turn over Jews to the Nazis to be sent to the gas chambers.
In Rom 12 we are told to overcome evil with good. This would contradict your theory of Rom 13 because one cannot over come an evil ruler if your commanded to submit to an evil ruler. You can only do one or the other not both.
Daniel 3
Meshack, Shadrach, and Abednego all disobeyed a command from the ruler to worship the idol of a false god.
