    Don… Might wanna check see if your secretary of health hasn’t given you worms. Former presidents don’t have security clearance. Which is why you were being sued for keeping boxes of documents in your shitty clubhouse’s bathroom.

        AFAIK an active sitting president technically doesn’t have clearance unless they go through the investigation for it. they just have an inherent right to view classified documents.

        Same reason the president gets a paycheck, it would be prohibitive otherwise to limit your pool of candidates

      Traditionally, former Presidents are given intelligence briefings and will be asked their opinion on various matters. Obviously, Trump is the most knowingest person to ever exist and don’t need no advice from brain inferiors.
