    Donald Trump will soon get classified briefings. How worried should we be? http://mojo.ly/23slVh2 pic.twitter.com/eWO3sLvkqU

        @MotherJones Has Trump had a proper background check & been vetted? I'd doubt he would truly even qualify for a top secret classification

        @MotherJones And I'm being quite serious. With Trump's social, sexual, political and business history...how would he qualify for top secret?

        @bfs465 @MotherJones I have Top Secret clearance--career Foreign Service--and I'm not even sure of the criteria...but you may be right.

        @rona65 @MotherJones I grew up reading MJ and listening to KPFK. Didn't keep me from growing up to be a perennial grieving libertarian.

        @rona65 I've been watching the storm gather since 1990. Sad but not surprised. Hence the perennial grief.

        @MotherJones Maybe they'll give him fake briefings and he won't know the difference.

        @MotherJones Very. I don't feel he and his team can be trusted. They're too close to Putin and have loose lips, let alone loose tweets.

        @MotherJones Even as a party nominee, wouldn't trump still need to be thoroughly vetted before he is provided with critical intelligence?
