Jake Sullivan, Bidens Adviser, a Figure of Fascination and Schadenfreude Washington has long been captivated by fallen star narratives, which has made President Bidens national security adviser a figure of fascination, somewhere between sympathy and schadenfreude. By Mark Leibovich Published Nov. 30, 2021Updated Dec. 1, 2021 WASHINGTON Jake Sullivan, President Bidens national security adviser, married Margaret Goodlander, now counsel to Attorney General Merrick B. Garland, in a 2015 wedding that seems set in a distant Democratic utopia. Mr. Biden would soon retire as a popular vice president, Donald J. Trump was considered a sideshow, and Hillary Clinton was the president in waiting. Guests at the Yale campus that weekend included a former president (Bill Clinton), a former secretary of state (Mrs. Clinton), a future secretary of state (Antony J. Blinken) and a Supreme Court justice (Stephen G. Breyer). The many former bosses on hand had pegged the golden-boy groom as an ideal national security adviser in the coming Clinton White House which, at 40, would have made him the youngest person to hold the job. That prediction proved largely true, if erroneous in its electoral assumption about 2016 and premature by an interlude long enough for the White House to turn over twice, China to strengthen, a pandemic to rage and the difficulties of the job to grow considerably. So it was on Aug. 26 that Mr. Sullivan, presiding over a briefing on Afghanistan in the White House Situation Room, saw Gen. Kenneth F. McKenzie Jr., the head of the militarys Central Command, turn ashen after being handed a sheet of paper.Show more
