* ''On Holding Trump Accountable'': "Iâve studied Trumpâs style and it is based around deliberate ambiguities that Left and Right can be counted upon to hear as meaning different things. If Trump makes N nested ambiguous statements in a minute, he will create a minimum of 2 to the N legs of the decision tree that must be considered, given your strategy. He will force you and the rest of the United States public intellectuals to waste much of your intellectual life, for four to eight years, picking up after him. He just needs to knock over the intellectual vases faster than you can glue their shards back together. No matter how good you are, you arenât going to make it through like that." <small>''(source: [https://theportal.group/my-absence-the-tech-platforms-the-2020-election-jean-seberg-and-article-58/ My absence, the tech platforms, the 2020 election, Jean Seberg, and Article 58])''</small> | * ''On Holding Trump Accountable'': "Iâve studied Trumpâs style and it is based around deliberate ambiguities that Left and Right can be counted upon to hear as meaning different things.

* ''On The Peter Principle'':Â "The Peter principle has to do with systems of selective pressures, so that in a previous world where corporate ladders actually functioned (which many of our younger viewers wonât know anything about because the corporate latter hasnât worked for a great deal of time) people would advance by merit to the point at which they would find that they were first incompetent and then they would stop there, and effectively you would go one step beyond where your competency lay. I think that the Peter principle really doesnât function because what you now have is an insane situation in which you have people like myself: about 55 years old (54, technically) who have never even started our careers because of the holding pattern that we find having to do with tremendous numbers of people in the silent and boomer generations holding the important chairs" <small>''(source: [https://youtu.be/1CCde6TAKdw?t=105Â The Verdict With Ted Cruz Ep. 39, 1:45])"</small> | * ''On The Peter Principle'':Â "The Peter principle has to do with systems of selective pressures, so that in a previous world where corporate ladders actually functioned (which many of our younger viewers wonât know anything about because the corporate latter hasnât worked for a great deal of time) people would advance by merit to the point at which they would find that they were first incompetent and then they would stop there, and effectively you would go one step beyond where your competency lay.
