Almost all of the publications Sjursen is listed as contributing to – the NY Times, LA Times, The Nation, Huff Post, The Hill, Salon, Mother Jones and perhaps two others (that is, all but The American Conservative) supported Biden in the election – knowing full well what he would do once (seemingly) elected.
They wanted to get Trump out for the same reasons they wanted to get Nixon out and Kennedy before him. Not hawkish enough. Biden will give the War Party all the wars they want.
