Him not getting security clearance to see how foreign governments are meddling with our elections and politicians sealed the deal for me. Name one good reason he wouldn't get clearance other than the obvious.

Is the obvious answer so he can feign ignorance of the support, or that there is a reason he wouldn't pass the security check?

Well shit, now there's two very bad reasons.

I didn't know so..... Seems to be the reasoning. Sorry for the lack of quotes

So what would happen if he were to win the election then fail the security clearance?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I read somewhere that if he becomes PM he doesn’t need to pass clearance anymore, he gets it automatically. Yet another reason not to let him win.

No valid reason. Interesting how the Right, Modi, Putin, Orban, etc. endorse PP to a point.
