“I think that, very carefully, we have to talk about the added dynamic here. Because you have the right and the left – the extremes on the right and the left – you have fake news, you have conspiracy theorists who are really muddying the waters, and we have become desensitized,” explained Brzezinski.

“We also have a president who pushes fake news and conspiracy theories – from birtherism, to promoting violence on the campaign trail. I mean, this is the new dynamic here. I’m not putting anything squarely on the president, but I have to say that this is the new added dynamic to what is a very dangerous climate,” said Brzezinski.
She went on to compare President Trump’s rhetoric to the Bill Clinton sex scandal. “I know that you’re … on the edge of your seat as I talk about this. I know what I’m trying to say here, and I’ll try and give you a parallel to help you understand: What Bill Clinton did to the issue of sex to an entire generation,” she explained.
