TRUMP: I'm A 'Smart Person,' Don't Need Intell Briefings Every Single Day
Trump is always present, if not always there. Whew, that's a relief!
President-elect Donald Trump brushed off concerns that he's not participating in the traditional daily intelligence and national security briefings that presidents hold every day. In a rare post-election interview that aired Sunday, Trump argued for why he did not need to receive regular classified intelligence briefings on national security and foreign affairs, saying he told intelligence officials to only brief him when a situation the intelligence community is monitoring changes.
Appearing on "Fox News Sunday," Trump told host Chris Wallace:
"I get it when I need it. I'm, like, a smart person. I don't have to be told the same thing in the same words every single day for the next eight years." Trump added, "I don't need that. But I do say, 'If something should change, let us know.'"
Trump emphasized that Vice President-elect Mike Pence was receiving daily briefings.
