If you ever held a security clearance you’d know this is nothing to laugh about. The most disturbing aspect of the recent Trump audio clip is his laughing after he states he has a classified document that he is sharing with individuals without clearances. Getting and maintaining a security clearance is a very serious action. You are heavily scrutinized as to whether you are a security risk. The process of getting a clearance takes typically multiple months and can take as long as a year. After obtaining a clearance, you are trained on the security procedures which include the handing of secure documents. You receive annual refresher training on the security procedures.
If, for a project, you need to hold classified documents, they are assigned to you and tracked. Access to documents are limited only to those who have a “need to know”’. You have to keep all documents you hold in an approved safe. Your holdings are audited periodically. If you accidentally fail to follow the rules, you basically get a citation if the offense was minor (left out a secret document on your desk and left your office for a few minutes), which goes into your work record. If the offense is major (removed multiple documents and brought them home), you’d be fired and prosecuted.
Trump’s bases seem not to understand the need to protect classified materials. For a group that likes to wrap themselves in the flag, they appear highly ignorant of what it takes to keep that flag safe.
There is no wiggle room when it comes to security procedures. It is taken very, very seriously. Trump’s behavior reveals how completely ignorant he is about the military, intelligence, and foreign affairs. Even after having been President, he seems to not have learned very much about these topics. I believe it shows he is unqualified to be President.
