      Spicer is literally saying that the ONLY vetting they consider necessary (re: Flynn) is whether someone has a security clearance.

      And, bc Flynn had a security clearance previously under the Obama admin, Spicer's arg is that the Trump admin needed to do no add'l vetting.

          The fact that he was going to be National Security Advisor this time around didn't warrant any additional vetting?

          Why do your own homework when you copy someone else's work? Plus, he was a pitbull for Trump; loyalty outweighs reason with this POTUS.

          Syrian refugees were cleared under Obama admin, but Trump admin needed to do additional vetting, apparently.

          EXTREME vetting is TOTALLY different. Only poor brown people really need to be looked at closely. Rich white guys can do no wrong, right?

          Well -- it's not as if someone could do anything illegal in the years between originally getting security clearance & the present. Oh. Wait.

          what about the fact that Obama fired him and revoked his security clearance...?

          The Trump administration wasn't curious about why Flynn was fired? That didn't trigger a need for updated information?
