DONALD TRUMP HAS TIME TO TWEET, BUT NOT TIME FOR NATIONAL
INTELLIGENCE BRIEFINGS --
THAT MIGHT LEAD YOU TO BELIEVE THAT HE SORT OF GETS THE
LEVEL OF RESPONSIBILITY, THE THREATS OUR COUNTRY IS FACING,
SO HE'S ADMITTING THAT.
IT'S A RARE, HONEST, OPEN MOMENT FROM
DONALD TRUMP, UNFORTUNATELY WE WILL GO TO VIDEO 13,
HE'S NOT FOLLOWING IT UP WITH ANY CHANGE OF BEHAVIOR.
I WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT YOUR SKEPTICISM ABOUT THE
INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY.
YOU ARE GETTING THE PRESIDENTIAL DAILY
BRIEF ONCE A WEEK.
WELL, I GET IT WHEN I NEED IT.
IS THERE SOME SKEPTICISM?
FIRST OF ALL THESE ARE GOOD PEOPLE GIVING ME THE BRIEFINGS,
AND I SAY IF SOMETHING SHOULD CHANGE FROM THIS POINT,
IMMEDIATELY CALL ME, I AM AVAILABLE ON ONE MINUTE'S
NOTICE.
I DON'T HAVE TO BE TOLD -- I'M LIKE A SMART PERSON, I
DON'T HAVE TO BE TOLD THE SAME THINGS EVERY DAY FOR THE NEXT
EIGHT YEARS, COULD BE EIGHT YEARS.
I DON'T NEED THAT.
BUT I DO SAY IF SOMETHING SHOULD CHANGE, LET US KNOW.
THIS IS CLOSE TO THE ELECTION AND THERE ARE TWO THINGS THAT
ARE CLEAR ABOUT HOW LITTLE HE KNOWS ABOUT THE ACTUAL JOB OF
THE PRESIDENCY.
ONE, HE THINKS THE PRESIDENT IS SO NOT BUSY
THAT HE CAN BE ON ONE MINUTE'S NOTICE FOR PHONE CALLS, WHICH
ISN'T HOW IT WORKS OUT, AND TWO, HE SAYS IF ANYTHING CHANGES,
CALL ME.
IF ANYTHING CHANGES IN THE WORLD, CALL ME.
YOUR PHONE
IS GOING TO BE RINGING ALL DAY LONG.
SORRY TO INTERRUPT BUT THE FIRST PART OF HIS ANSWER IS
LAUGHABLE BECAUSE HE IS LIKE, I'LL GET THEM WHEN I NEED THEM.
HOW WILL YOU KNOW WHETHER OR NOT YOU NEED THEM?
CAN YOU PREDICT
THAT THERE IS SOME SORT OF CRISIS HAPPENING IN SOME COUNTRY
OR AN IMMINENT THREAT TO NATIONAL SECURITY?
HOW WOULD YOU KNOW?
I NEED TO ADD SOMETHING BECAUSE I WANT PEOPLE TO
UNDERSTAND THE CONTEXT, IF IT TURNS OUT NORTH KOREA IS ABOUT
TO LAUNCH NUKES, THEN YOU WOULD CALL THE PRESIDENT THAT MINUTE,
BUT YOU WOULD GET THAT CALL WHETHER OR NOT YOU HAD THE
BRIEFINGS.
THE BRIEFINGS AREN'T FOR EMERGENCIES, THEY ARE SO YOU
CAN PREPARE.
HERE IS THE STATE OF NORTH KOREA, HERE IS THE
STATE OF GERMANY, HERE IS THE STATE OF THE WORLD.
LET'S PLAN
AHEAD SO I DON'T HAVE TO CALL YOU IN A MINUTE AND SAY THEY ARE
LAUNCHING THE NUKES.
BUT IF YOU ARE NOT AT ALL PREPARED AND HAVE
NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON, WHEN THEY CALL YOU IN A PANIC, YOU
NEVER GOT THE BRIEFING, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
YOU DON'T
KNOW HOW MANY MISSILES THEY HAVE POINTED AT SOUTH KOREA, DO YOU
GO IN BY GROUND OR AIR?
THE GENERALS WILL TELL ME.
THE SAME
GENERALS HE USED TO INSULT ON THE CAMPAIGN.
BUT YOU NEED TO BE
READY ON THE SPOT.
HE IS LIKE, I'LL GET THEM WHEN I NEED THEM
BECAUSE I'M A SMART PERSON.
A SMART PERSON PREPARES, THEY DON'T JUST GO, THERE IS AN
EMERGENCY, FIGURE IT OUT IN A MINUTE.
THE SMARTEST PEOPLE I KNOW ALWAYS REFER TO THEMSELVES
AS LIKE A SMART PERSON.
[LAUGHTER]
I HAVE SOME OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF A SMART
PERSON.
ONE QUICK POINT, I'M NOT SMART ENOUGH TO KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT
THE PRESIDENTIAL BRIEFINGS AND HOW IMPORTANT THEY ARE, I'M
GOING TO ASSUME THEY ARE IMPORTANT, BUT SOMEONE SMARTER
THAN ME MADE THE CASE THAT MAYBE THE SILVER LINING HERE IS THAT
IF THE PRESIDENT DOESN'T HAVE THESE BRIEFINGS EVERY DAY HE'S
NOT HEARING FROM THESE GUYS WHO WANT TO GO TO WAR EVERY DAY,
MEANING THE CIA, NSA, AND ALL THESE OTHER PEOPLE WHO WANT
TO GO TO WAR, SO HE DOESN'T GET THESE BRIEFINGS, SO MAYBE
IT WILL KEEP US OUT OF WAR.
I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S THE CASE.
LET ME TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU, OBVIOUSLY SOMEONE WILL HAVE
TO GO TO THESE BRIEFINGS.
WE HAD UNDER GEORGE W. BUSH AND I
WASN'T SMART OR INVOLVED ENOUGH TO MAKE DECISIONS, BUT THERE
WERE PEOPLE LURKING IN THE BACKGROUND, AND OF COURSE TRUMP
HAS THAT.
IN THE MEANTIME I GENERALS ARE BEING BRIEFED, AND MIKE
PENCE IS BEING BRIEFED, WHO IS BY THE WAY MAKING VERY GOOD
DECISIONS, HE'S TERRIFIC, THEY ARE BEING BRIEFED.
I'M BEING
BRIEFED ALSO, BUT I DON'T NEED TO BE TOLD THE SAME THING EVERY
DAY, EVERY MORNING, THE SAME WORDS, SIR, NOTHING HAS CHANGED,
LET'S GO OVER IT AGAIN.
I DON'T NEED THAT.
HE MIGHT TURN THINGS OVER TO THE GENERALS OR MIKE PENCE OR
SOMEBODY ELSE, AND MAYBE THOSE PEOPLE WILL MAKE THE RIGHT
DECISIONS, MAYBE THEY WILL OPT FOR MORE STABILITY THAN DONALD
TRUMP COULD PROVIDE.
BUT MAYBE NOT.
THIS IS A GUY WHO SAYS HE'S
A GOOD MANAGER, AND HE'S ALSO SAYING I WILL DO NO MANAGING.
LIKES WHAT HE JUST TOLD YOU IN THAT CLIP IS THAT MIKE PENCE IS
PRESIDENT.
WHICH HE TOLD US MONTHS AGO.
HE ALSO SAID I DON'T NEED THE
SAME WORDS EVERY DAY.
I HAVE A FEELING, AS BUSY AS BARACK OBAMA
IS, I DON'T THINK HE WOULD SIT THERE FOR HOURS EVERY DAY IF IT
WAS THE SAME WORDS.
HE SEEMS TO THINK THERE ARE LIKE FIVE
COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD.
THERE ARE, DEPENDING ON HOW YOU DEFINE
IT, 170 OR 200 COUNTRIES.
THINGS HAPPEN AND CHANGE EVERYDAY.
I
WANT TO COMPARE IT TO THE LEVEL OF PREPARATION AND, I GUESS,
INTEREST IN THE SPECIFICS AND FACTS OF OTHER ADMINISTRATIONS
LIKE THE ONE THAT JUST LEFT --
LOOK, THAT
COULD POSSIBLY
WORK IF YOU WERE RUNNING YOUR
TRANSITION THE WAY OTHER PRESIDENTS HAVE, WHERE THE TOP
10% OF EACH CABINET DEPARTMENT TENDS TO SWITCH OVER, THOSE ARE
THE POLITICAL APPOINTMENTS, BUT EVERYONE ELSE, THE CAREER
OFFICIALS WHO KNOW THIS STUFF, STAY.
BUT THEY HAVE TALKED ABOUT
WEEDING THOSE PEOPLE OUT TOO, AND WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THERE IS
MORE TENSION IN THE SOUTH CHINA SEA OR ISIS MAKES MOVES, NOBODY
WILL BE ABLE TO COUNTER IT.
THERE IS AN EXAMPLE OF A PRESIDENTIAL DAILY BRIEFING THAT
WAS SKIPPED THAT HAD CONSEQUENCES, WHEN GEORGE BUSH
WAS ON VACATION IN CRAWFORD, HE WAS ON HIS RANCH FOR AN ENTIRE
MONTH IN AUGUST, HE TOOK A MONTH OFF AS PRESIDENT -- HE WAS
BETTER THAN TRUMP IN THAT HE WAS THEORETICALLY RECEIVING THE
BRIEFINGS EVERY DAY, HE WASN'T BRAZEN ENOUGH TO SAY I'LL
THEM, HE PRETENDED TO GET THEM -- ONE DAY HE HAD A BRIEFING
CALLED OSAMA BIN LADEN IS DETERMINED TO ATTACK WITHIN THE
UNITED STATES, HE TOLD THEM YOU COVER YOUR ASS, NOW GO HOME.
HE
SKIPPED THAT BRIEFING, THAT ONE TURNED OUT TO BE IMPORTANT.
AND
WHEN HE GOT A CALL LATER AND NEEDED TO RESPOND IN A
MINUTE, THE TOWERS WERE ALREADY GONE.
