more of a national security risk. Right, he’s already selling secrets.
Gotta hush all those girls he pees on in Russian hotels.
Nah mate, he paid them to pee on a bed where Obama's family once slept.

this is past tense, isn't it? like, he doesn't ave more secrets to sell, and he's sold the ones he already had....
Unless he ends up in the white house again...then plenty more secrets to sell!
I can't believe that's actually a possibility....
I can’t believe that’s actually a possibility…
me neither. I really want to wake up and find out the last 8 years have been one long, fucked up dream.
As the GOP nominee he will begin to receive some intelligence briefings even before the elections, as early as July. It was recently reported that the White House, caught in a "damned if you damned if you don't scenario" that is synonymous with Trump, sided to go with tradition & allow Trump access to these, even while he fights a classified documents mishandling case in court. This wouldn't make any sense in a Jack Ryan novel & yet ...
When I got my security clearance, one of the things they drove home was reporting people who were having money problems because, as this points out, having money problems makes you prone to being bribed, and thus a threat.

Lmao, as if there was ever a legitimate and legal way for him to get this money. "What if I sell secrets to somebody rich" was his default strategy before he even entered the white house. This doesn't make him any more of a security risk because he's already maxed out that metric many times over.
And yet nothing happens becuz he's running fah office
He is a security threat first and foremost with his previous debt he should never had had a security clearance. His outside connections make him the exact person people with clearances are trained to spot and bring up.
And yet, here we are.
It would be very interesting if a president was actually denied a security clearance
The president doesn't actually hold a security clearance. Kushner was almost denied if I remember right, and definitely should have been.
I wonder what would happen if Putin straight up offered to cover his debts? I expect Trump would actually accept that offer and his idiot base would see nothing wrong with it if he did.

Which is exactly why we should drop all the lawsuits against him and proactively bribe him with patriot-money! /s
The s stands for both sarcasm and sadness...
Wow, guess the Saudis overpaid with that $1billion, they must be kicking themselves
He already spent it. Probably on gold plating his own turds.
Honestly, I kinda want Putin to personally secure it for him. It would be a test of the system. It would let us know what needs to be done.
Are we sure that Putin is good for it?
Well he could fly over here and deliver it on person. Hopefully that route passes over Ukraine.

Blyat!
Jail it is then.
The thumbnail looks like he just barfed on the back windshield of the car
risk? He was already working with Russia to subvert the 2016 election. He was bought a long time ago and has been transparently working for Russian interests since.
