Chelsea received classified info from her ma, so what was her security clearance level?

Why bother with all of that paperwork when all's they have to do is set up a server in the basement of Trump Tower and have emails forwarded to them there?

The precedent has been set.....

Debunked or not, anyone can get a SSBI and TS clearance if you want to spend the money. As others said, it doesn’t grant you access without need-to-know. Many contractors who have never been direct government employees get clearances. They prefer to hire people with clearances because it’s cheaper. It just takes $20,000+ and the paperwork.

“Trump supporters are really violent..!” - CLINTON supporters are violent.

“Trump is playing fast and loose with national secrets..!” - CLINTON played fast and loose with national secrets.

This is disgusting.

Ummm, Robert F. Kennedy?

I recall the rules were enacted in response to Robert Kennedy.

In any event, I could see Trump liking the idea of being able to talk about things that he is troubled about with people he can trust.

Debunked BS

CNN ran with it all evening long, and that the Trump campaign was in disarray. No one can sling the BS more than CNN LoL.

I saw it last night on the CNN news ribbon at the bottom of the screen.

Was at supper @ a restaurant and they had the bar big screen TV on CNN.

Even if it was real, I don’t see the issue. The Children would probably need some sort of high level clearance to access the White House and other areas their dad goes.

We could check if Chelsea, Barbara and Jenna, and all the others had the same thing.

still can’t figure out Obama and Hillary got their top-secret security clearances

Simple answer - the entire administration is corrupt to the core. Neither would pass a legitimate full-field FBI investigation for Top Secret or above

Anyhow, news out today says no such clearance has been asked for those 3. This is nothing more than inventing bogus issues to attack President-Elect Trump.

Well, it does raise questions likely to occur to inquisitive, normal minds.

Does Chelsea and her family have top secret security clearance?

Did Margaret Truman? Does the current First Sasquatch?

I suppose we will now be honored for years by the sickest minds inside the Clinton Criminal Enterprises, Inc about their zealous concern of national security?

As for the MSM they are already distrusted as documented traitors and seditionists.

Weirdness has settled in over the land....

CNN further fretted about ‘conflict of interests’ in having Trump’s children run their companies while taking an active part in government. Well as long as they don’t do like Hellary selling everything and getting gold mines for brothers, they have nothing to worry about. Trump spent what - about $100 million dollars of his own money on his campaigns. What the press thinks they may have in some future “appearance of conflict” is going to be a big nothing burger. I doubt it would make up a spit of the $100 mil. that Trump spent on his own. And at sometime Trump’s children get a secret clearances would be a good idea as they are part of his consults. They have to not send out dumb emails in the clear LoL.

Ya know, I would think this would just make clear sense in some respects. Picture this scenero: Trump and family are at a family dinner and Trump inadvertently mentions something that might be classified. If they didn’t have clearances, that would be a technical, though unintended violation of thw law. If this request were true (though it has apparently been debunked) it would make sense in that context and it would support it as such if it were framed in that way, and understood in that way by all parties involved.

That would rightly preclude such things as security briefings, but also cover all parties for any such inadvertent disclosure. It would also be in keeping with Trumps intention to maintain the rule of law, I.e., no special rules for the king.

I think this idea actually has merit on its face.
