    Small recent example. General blanket distrust in government leads to unwillingness to trust governmental health experts, leading to making the covid pandemic worse than was necessary.

    As was intended by those like Reagan.

      Or conversely, the general trust in the government led people to go along with measures like lockdowns that harmed the economy, caused severe inflation, and didnt let the kids go to school.

      You are literally repeating bullshit government talking points four years later, you need a little less trust in “experts”.
