Donald Trump...here are the Top 10 Reasons Why People Are Denied a Security Clearance...(see link)
1) Financial Considerations...DJT went bankrupt at least 6 times...his son, Eric, said the Trump Co. was getting all it's funding needs met by Russia...his primary bank, Deutsche Bank, was fined hundreds of millions of dollars for money-laundering Russian funds to mobsters...there's more...lots more on this front.
2) Personal Conduct...3,500, plus, lawsuits in federal and state courts for such things as non-payment to lawyers, contractors and real-estate brokers...claims of hush-money to porn stars for services rendered...etc, etc, etc.......................
3) Drug Involvement...no evidence against DJT, but "people are saying" that he's into ' Adderall'...
4) Foreign Influence...need I say more?...decades of involvement with Russians, both here (Felix Sater) and over there (too many to count)
5) Criminal Conduct...Fraudulent business practices...e.g. Trump University...bogus Charitable Fund...and LOTS more to come...
6) Alcohol Consumption...no issues
7) Foreign Preference...see "Helsinki" video of DJT siding with Putin over our own Intelligence Community
8) Handling Protected Information...nothing before becoming President...but WHOA what a screw up afterward...
9) Use of IT Systems...just gross mis-use of Twitter...banned for life.
10) Sexual Behavior..."Grab 'em by the P____"...hush money for Porn Stars...accusations of rape against him...
btw, the article states that there are three other categories not listed, including one for "Psychological Conditions"...DJT's "Malignant Narcissism" was evident to over 1,000 psychologists before he ran for President...they signed a letter attesting to that finding...that would definitely hold back a Security Clearance from any applicant for a government job.
Any one of these categories would likely keep him from even working on a highly sensitive project...imagine checking all but one box to the max and then being IN CHARGE of all those projects!?...ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
At least five of these gross failures were known before he became President...he absolutely SHOULD have been investigated six-ways-from-Sunday by the FBI and all other agencies. IMO this country needs new rules for who can be a candidate for President of the USA...
This whole "Hillary" thing is a smoke screen...she has already been investigated by GOP Attorney General, with no charges being filed...anything to deflect from DJT's failings...and mis-placed loyalty.
