"never" come to light is a long time. Doubt that's all that necessary.

Our "leaders" decent and tons VERY indecent in a list of ways--have been super excessive about secrecy etc. for decades.

It is very overdue for the pendulum to swing the other direction for a good long time.

Then plan on living at least another 50 years. Your view of secrets in today's world is childish at best. When you get a clearance, you don't get a 'book' of all the secrets at that level. There are many 'classifiers' as the originators, so there isn't even one large book of 'secrets'. One thing that isn't secret is that the classification process does hide 'bad' things, incompetence etc. Not a perfect world and is certainly isn't run by perfect individuals. Nonetheless, the President can declassify if he knows. Elect good people there and the system can function better.

Q and to the extent you believe Pres Trump is using Q has said 40% public. Do you trust the President to act in a manner consistent with his charge? If you do, then this call for the outpouring of 'secrets' despite that in his judgement that they would be de-stabilizing is the same as crying about if we are 'there' yet. Knowing what he knows, I doubt he views it as nothing less than a burden as the things hinted at are sickening. Even folks hereabouts who have/had high clearances are required to keep their mouths shut. You don't get extra money and some of what you know may not to your liking, but with the knowledge comes the requirement.
