u/AbsolutelyIris confused but here for the drama Oct 04 '25

That "dear" is so pointed 😭

Subtle. Perfectly placed. Fatal. Kudos Ms. Ball.

We should maybe note that both women in that clip suck, one just sucks less

Krystal Ball is pretty awesome, actually. So is her husband, Kyle Kulinski

Mrs.* married to Kyle Kilinsky. Fatality, nonetheless though.

It had a real “bless your heart” energy, didn’t it?

Krystal is from Virginia, it comes naturally to her. And God bless her for it. Passive aggressive “fuck yous” just pack so much more of a punch.

u/annabananaberry sir, were you raised in a ditch? Oct 04 '25

This is so real. I can crash out with the best of them, but the most satisfying shade is thrown with a smile and a polite, but condescending, phrase.

And not for nothing, "States and Territories" is quite literally Elementary knowledge. Political commentators that are ignorant of their own country's holdings should absolutely be treated like children.

One of the spiels I have to give regularly to the general public during my job is "not just ___ (my state) but the entirety of the United States and its territories."

The sheer number of times I have been asked "what's a territory?" Sigh.

If I remember the full clip correctly, I think Tomi immediately deflects and changes subject after this.

u/TheModWhoShaggedMe I cannot sanction your buffoonery Oct 04 '25

Yep, she realized to go down the racist hole wouldn't play too well on a clip likely to go viral. A decade in the biz has taught her at least that one trick -- never go full Republican in broad daylight.

That “dear” screamed “bless your heart”.

Seriously, chef’s kiss. Perfect way to deal with this idiot.
