Conspiracy theories often involve a plot by multiple individuals to cause a major event having political consequences, as in the conspiracy theory invented by [[Hillary Clinton]] and other [[liberals]] that [[Russia]] interfered with the presidential election in the [[United States]] in 2016, leading to [[Donald Trump]]'s victory.
