Utility of these security clearances are to the intel. here s what the president wrote even james clapper had to ammonish general bran unanimous for going totally off the rails. maybe clapper is being nice to me when so he doesn t lose security clearance for lying to the congress. he said maybe brennan went to far but he shares the concerns and fears we have here. with the white house dance around that this is about loyalty and if you re nice to him you keep your clearance? i m not sure that there is any aide in the white house who can make a parallel argument for what president trump is doing because it reveals itself. clapper, i don t think, has necessarily laid down a history of being nice to president trump ....
