It would be easier to believe Trump if he did not have a passel of classified docs, unsecured (safes are secure, boxes in laundry rooms are not), and apparently lied about having them.

We Vets, and those currently serving, know that this is beyond, beyond illegal and unacceptable.

If Trump wins the nom, and he might, be prepared for 24/7 oppo ads about porn star hush money, flights aboard Epstein's 727, impeachments, indictment and trial for classified document misuse. Some of it unfair, all of it due to Trump's inability to control his impulses.

Trump will lose the general election, and it's all on him.

As an aside, an honorable discharge should be a requirement for POTUS, Veep, and SOTH.

Agreed. And as a fellow veteran, with a clearance during and after service, it is hard to accept his cavalier attitude about classified documents.

We'd need a constitutional amendment to require honorable military service to qualify for POTUS, VP, and Speaker. I'd support that. Public opinion can achieve in the interim if we demand it of our candidates. Sadly, I think DeSantis is the only veteran among all of the current presidential candidates.

I would add an age limit of 69 at the time of inauguration. Having presidents who are pushing 80 years old while in office is insane.

McCain could be POTUS but not Trump. Is that what you want?
