    I get denied from jobs with security clearances because I have student loans debt / financial hardships when they run background checks. The president has the ability to declassify any documents… And he has been on recording sharing classified documents with non clearanced individuals.

    Security must only impact peasants

      It has to be more than student debt. Like being severely delinquent. It having declared bankruptcy. Or being in such debt that you’d be at risk of bribery.

      They only care about your risk to be bribed or blackmailed and that you are honest.

        Never declared bankruptcy. Trump has though numerous times, so it can’t be that. 85% of my debt is student loans… And nothing is delinquent. 10% car loan, 5% elsewhere. It doesn’t often go the way that we think it should

      Security clearance derives from Executive power in the first place. He got it by default.

      Don’t let him have that power again.
