That's the goal once they are in power, when trying to gain power it's best to cause mistrust among the current power class and getting people to trust you instead.

Of course that doesn't make Clinton's examples any better...

Putting aside that she entirely prefaced it with examples of them in power, I still wouldn't agree with that. That's a means to an end. It's like saying that the goal of fighting a war is to fire bullets out of a gun.


I'm just trying to understand that paragraph. It seems like it was poorly written. The Soviets and 1984 were very careful with what was released by politicians/the media, there was little mistrust in a time when there should have been. She then appears to incorrectly relate this to Trump's push to cause mistrust in other politicians/media/experts.

It probably doesn't help that I don't know the context of the paragraph.
