You honestly think Barack Obama could have passed a high level DOD security check? With his sketchy background not in a million years. Presidential candidates don’t have to pass security checks.
You do know who you’re asking?

These government parasites need to know their place.
Ronald Reagan had a hostile relationship with many many enemies of America, both foreign and domestic. His first meeting with Gorbachev in Reykjavik was in the press for weeks about how icy cold their relationship was, how ‘hard-line’ Reagan was.
Trump knows better how to handle intel than any CIA bureaucrat. And as any smart person will do, when you don’t know something, you ask the right people, people that are trusted. Donald Trump will do far better than anyone can imagine.
Since the gubmint failed to pull Hillary’s security clearance, and that of many of her minions, do they get the same Intel as The Donald?
too bad. Americans aren't aghast at all. No identity? no admittance.
Mr. Trump should start issuing orders to the US military NOW, something like “Hey, people, the whole world knows we have a mental defective in the white house and other mental defectives in our state department... That is coming to an end next January; in the meantime, ANYBODY who obeys any sort of an order to start any sort of a war or do anything else stupid between now and then is going to wish he’d never been born the day after I’m inaugurated!!”
He was also a US senator on the foreign affairs and homeland security committees.
Getting security clearance is a long process. Depending on the clearance level and your job it can involve a pretty invasive examination of your life.
Every person exposed to classified information undergoes security checks. When you’re the big boss it does matter, because ever person in the executive branch (every department or agency in government will the exception of congress and the courts) works for you.
As a former U.S. naval officer I have had a variety of clearance classifications.
You will know if he showed up....if his hair turns white...(no racist puns intended)
Oh. How did jarret or huma get clearances (as well as many of the other anti-American criminals in this mal-administration)?
Dad was an Army officer from WWII to 1966. His last tour was at the Pentagon, I believe on the staff of the Under Secretary of the Army. Anyway I recall him flying to London with his boss to brief the Brits on some weapons program. Secret stuff. Dad’s in his 90s now and still with a good mind. Not long ago he mentioned that trip, so I asked him “what was it that you briefed the Brits about?” He looked at me with a jaundiced eye and said “You’re not cleared.” And that was that.
True, but this is huge: Rubes and Cruz in particular always had facts and figures at their fingers because they were constantly briefed as senators. I predict Trump will begin to sound more “traditional” in terms of specifics since he will have them for the first time.
You beat me to it.
Cameron calls Trump divisive, stupid and wrong.
Trump says it looks like we might not have a good relationship.
Whose statement was the more provocative?
Cameron was being juvinile sticking his nose into our election.
He’s the one messing up the relationship between countries.
Trump just stated the obvious.
Cameron was playing to his constituency, irregardless of foreign relations and diplomacy. That says something about Cameron. And it says something about his constituency.
I have no problem with Trump’s response to that.
Trump just tweeted: “In politics, and in life, ignorance is not a virtue. This is a primary reason that President Obama is the worst president in U.S. history!”
I wonder why Obama got any security clearance given his past history?
Until Trump (or any candidate) undergoes a security check and receives clearance, they wont get anything more sophisticated than anything you can read in the paper.
Thank you for the morning laugh.
Having gone through the process of receiving a clearance I can say that Obama, Hillary and who knows how many others would NEVER receive a clearance based upon their ‘known’ actions over the last few decades.
At their ‘level’ a Clearance is deemed or bestowed upon them by the power of the Presidency alone.
