Good meme, upvoted.

Interesting fact, though, if Biden is 46 then how many men have been president before him?

You say 45. I say 44. Why? Grover Cleveland was president twice, but not consecutively, he was the 22nd & 24th president.

Thanks, Abbs.

The point I was trying to make, is that all these 'low-information voters' get freaked out because the MSM says; "Trump had Classified documents".

So what? Every POTUS does. They're entitled to have them, and they have the clearance to have them. Peanut Jimmy has them, Slick Willie has them, Dubya has them, and Barry-O has them. But they way they report on it, they make it seem like Trump is the ONLY one that has ever done this.

YOU ARE TECHNICALLY CORRECT THAT IS THE BEST KIND OF CORRECT | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
If you're going that far, you could also subtract every President prior to when the classification system was first created.

"Former U.S. Presidents retain top secret clearance for life."

That's something I never knew before. Thank you for sharing.

It shows how the MSM can make you believe the wrong things by strategically hiding the whole truth.

Here's an article with the headline "Jake Paul and Mike Tyson to be suspended from boxing after one-sided fight":

https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/boxing/mike-tyson-jake-paul-suspended-34123092

It's clickbait, because you want to read the article thinking "Why are they both suspended? What did they do wrong?" Then you read the article and find out neither boxer did anything wrong in that match, that being ordered to rest for three days for each round of boxing (24 days total) is just standard operating procedure in the state of Texas. It's kind of like rest periods at public swimming pools.

It helps to know how Sec Clearances work. Everything is further classified under "NTK" (or Need To Know). For example, just because you have a Top Secret level clearance, it does not entitle you access to every bit of information classified under that level, only the information required to do your particular job.

As such, Jimmy Carter might not be allowed access to Top Secret documents regarding the Iraq War, since it occurred after his term as POTUS was long over. But he would still have access to Top Secret documents about the Iranian Hostage Crisis of 1979.

These are just examples. The actual law governing this can be... convoluted.
