Thanks, I didn’t know that.
What motivated Krauthammer, was it money, or something more sinister?
Krauthammer is an example of the old Liberal Internationalist wing of the Democratic Party that had a big interest in an aggressive foreign policy. FDR and Truman with WWII and Korea. Cold War hawks. Wilsonians Making the World Safe for Democracy. Some are worshippers of Churchill and Britain’s empire. He likes political influence and being near the powerful. The Democratic Party has a domestic policy close to his, but their foreign policy has become timid. So Krauthammer and friends just showed up in conservative circles chirping a militant foreign policy and started passing themselves off as conservatives. It works on those who aren’t aware of their pasts.
