- CoastalCoder 2y agoI don't believe the POTUS is bound by the government's assessment of an employee's security risk. Whether or not ignoring such things is a good idea is something voters must judge.
- mannykannot 2y agoYou have a point - there are probably no defined rules about whether security risk rules apply when POTUS is employing someone to do something illegal or unconstitutional. If anyone gets to judge, however, it will be SCOTUS, not voters. It's hard to guess, right now, whether that's a plus for security.
- hackyhacky 2y agoSecurity clearances are granted by the president, or someone delegated by him. The president has absolute authority to bypass, modify, or shut down the clearance credentialing system. There is no law or Constitutional requirement dictating security requirements or how they are applied. As the sibling comment pointed out, this is not to say that doing so is a good idea. But it's very probably legal.
- johnnyanmac 2y agoNope, it's not illegal at all. This where one of the "traditions" should have come in and congress/the people should have burned Trump at stake for doing so, though. All those concerns about Hilary Emails 9 years ago, but we let Trump fast track his circus in no problems.
