The Ankler has a fascinating biography of Jeffrey Katzenberg, considered the main money power behind Biden’s North Korean eternal youth and omnipotence. From a caste viewpoint Katzenberg is unique. He’s the Courtier to beat all Courtiers. From birth he urgently needed to be the Power Behind The Throne. Most powerlovers seek the TOP and can’t be satisfied with anything less.
He started his kingmaker career at 14 in a typical NYC way. He was kicked out of a Catskills summer camp for gambling, so he offered his services as a gofer for the John Lindsay campaign. Lindsay was Repooflican at a time when the switchover of aristocrats from R to D was just getting underway. Lindsay served the economic and cultural interests of the bankers, which would be an exclusively D privilege now.
After that, Katzenberg ran the expected hedge fund and LBO career, the standard Man Of Monopoly, focusing his investing on Hollywood as a way of steering public conversations toward the Correct King. He always kept his hand deeply inside political power circles, always serving the Correct King better than anyone else. He was called the Golden Retriever, probably the best nickname in history!
