Additional quotes by Krystal Ball
While the ruling class may be good at foreclosing on middle class homes, giving closed door speeches to Goldman Sachs, and profiting off of climate catastrophe, they're not always so great at figuring out this whole politics thing. Their ego and undying faith in their own brilliance will never allow them to see what is so patently obvious to all of us: no one outside of your tiny enclave wants you. And your candidacies will only enable and inflame the exact populist movement you are so desperate to quash. Prepare to see many more billionaire tears in the days to come.

We really are watching the utter destruction of even assemblance of commitment to the 'international rules based order'. This has collapsed completely in real time. [...] I really do think, and there has been lots of things that you can point to, but in the modern era it really starts to come unglued with the Iraq war and the bullshit pretext we used to go in. It's no accident that [Vladimir] Putin pointed to the Iraq war and what we did there as his excuse for why it's okay for him to do what he does. [Benjamin] Netanyahu uses the Iraq war and the toll that took on civilians as his excuse to do what he is doing in Gaza. [...] I'm not going to deny there were horrors that we committed during the Iraq war [...] [but] it really does pale in comparison to what is unfolding in Gaza right now. But we started this started this unraveling in the modern era with the Iraq war and now we have just seen a complete disillusion of even the ability to have a pretext of commitment to these supposed higher values. Is an extraordinary and horrifying thing to watch in real time.
