You do realize that as President of the United States, Trump can grant security clearances to whomever he wants to, right?
Since at the end of the day, he is is the ultimate deciding official on all things classified.
It was created as an inherent part of his Article 2 powers.
No, you probably didn't know that.

Do you think he is a dictator?
That's an interesting question, where does that one come from ?
Y'all are batty. Do you realize there's a specific point where your "cause" becomes detrimental rather than beneficial. You're blind. It's tragic to watch, even from the other side.

I don't doubt it.
Imagine how hard it would be to get security clearances for the rotating band of criminals and perverts Donald Trump surrounds himself with as President.
He'd probably have to intervene most of the time.

Having a security clearance only give you clearance to see on a need to know bases.
I had a TS-NAC but i still could not see everything top secret
People working in the white house have a TS-SCI.
but documents with marked TS-SCI "Need to Know" on them if the do not have a Need to Know.
Even the President does not see everything under need to know.
one case of the VP not being able to see EVERYTHING was Harry S. Truman who was never told about the Manhattan Project until he became president.

I wonder what the President doesn't need to know? Shouldn't he have the highest classification, since he is the one that was elected to take care of the country?
