As a former government manager for the USIA, this makes me angry. I’m mad as hell and don't want to hold my tongue anymore.
The feds take months to investigate individuals before they issue top-secret clearances. However asinine idiots like Trump received it following the election he allegedly won with the help of Russia, according to Robert Muller.
What really upsets me is that the former guy never respected the presidency and took his clearance as a joke laughing about it. He wasted years playing golf, grifting American citizens, and giving tax breaks to the rich.
