Well, he's only just become a candidate - and this in spite of his convict status. So I hope so too. He'd probably have to ask Putin or Orban to tell him what they meant, anyway.
JD, I believe candidate's receiving briefings have been by convention, not bound by law or other requirement, and I think they typically increase in classification levels once someone is President-elect. That said, IIRC the former guy didn't approve briefing Biden, and it wasn't done (perhaps someone will correct me if wrong )
I believe Trump is NOT receiving security briefings. I hope I read that someplace.

ArenтАЩt candidates supposed to receive them?
In a normal world, yes. I doubt anyone in the US Intelligence communities really wants to trust Trump with anything sensitive.
How about the nuclear codes..l

Then skip it with the Trojan HorseтАж
Fine by me. It would just get passed along to Putin et al anyway.
As has been the case since 2015, I'd bet my life.
