        Well he had good reason to. It was an unprecedented move for an unprecedented president who was a clear security risk.

        Right? Don’t security clearances need to be re-upped regularly and get revoked when you leave your job?

      It’s pretty common for past presidents to be asked to advise on things they might have experience with or specific knowledge of. I think they all keep their clearance mainly for that reason.
