"Any foreign adversary seeking to buy a President knows the price," warns Rep. Sean Casten
A Democrat who sits on the House Financial Services Committee warned that former President Donald Trump’s inability to secure a bond for his $464 million fraud judgment makes him a “massive national security risk.”
Trump’s lawyers in a filing on Monday told a New York appeals court that he cannot secure a bond after approaching 30 underwriters.
“The amount of the judgment, with interest, exceeds $464 million, and very few bonding companies will consider a bond of anything approaching that magnitude,” the attorneys wrote.
The filing quoted an insurance broker who signed an affidavit stating that securing the bond is a “practical impossibility.”

He is a security threat first and foremost with his previous debt he should never had had a security clearance. His outside connections make him the exact person people with clearances are trained to spot and bring up.
And yet, here we are.
It would be very interesting if a president was actually denied a security clearance
The president doesn't actually hold a security clearance. Kushner was almost denied if I remember right, and definitely should have been.
