While Flynn has the necessary security clearance, Kushner does not, and it could take weeks or even longer for him to receive it. How much do you want to bet they act like jerks and deny it or delay it until January 21?

How much do you want to bet that Trump doesn't know about the NEPOTISM BAN ?
Somebody better tell him about it ASAP!

I wonder why the President Elect wants to have family given security clearance.

This is a bad idea of his all around. The anti-nepotism laws aside, there is no reason his family members should know everything that is going on.

Trump is a master delegater. And he values the advice from certain key people on this planet. It’s been obvious, for some time now, that some of those people are related to him.
But who wants advice from a trusted individual who doesn’t have all the facts???
So of course he’s asking for clearance. Nothing more to this story.

I’m beginning to think that Trump has dreams of a dynasty. No family member should have clearance mainly since it would create a situation where there would be more people that the Secret Service would have to protect and frankly I do not believe that anyone unelected or not part of the official staff should have access. If Jared runs around NY with classified papers, it would be a spy’s dream come true. Or worse, Jared gets kidnapped and ends up tortured into revealing everything.

It shouldnt be relatives. Bull. It should be whoever he is comfortable with and can pass the background checks.
Otherwise, he can take care of it after Jan. 20.

I agree with you completely!
And frankly, I don't give a damn what Trump imagines that Jared knows that can "help" him; he's damned dead wrong about that!
To: CorporateStepsister

There’s much more to the story and his s-i-l simply can NOT “help” him in any!
To: sargon
It’s a wrong and stupid move.
What is his expertise in regarding the national briefings?
Is he conservative?
Does he have vast experience in foreign and domestic affairs that he could offer so much to Trump?
Bad bad bad.

Jared has been especially helpful during the process. I’m not surprised Trump wants to keep him on the team. A clearance would be the prudent thing to do.

Jared has NO experience, in any areas at all, nor expertise in the ways of geo-politics. He's also all of 35 and the NEPOTISM LAW does come into play!
Somebody had better slap The Donald upside his head and quickly! He's already cosying up to some people he absolutely should not!

I’ll bet Hillary had clearance when Bubba was pres
