If Donald Trump were not a former president, this would be obvious:

If Trump were anyone else, he would automatically be considered the archetype of a security risk: a disgruntled, former employee with large debts and a narcissistic personality, who feels he has been cheated and treated unfairlyw.

Unfortunately, the reflexive genuflection before the Office Of The Presidency by a supposedly aggressive and free political press corps is why this straightforward observation–Trump is an obvious security threat–will go unremarked.

This also is an explanation for Michael Flynn’s behavior too–also unremarked by our political press corps.
