President Obama met with Trevor Noah from The Daily Show and spoke about the recent news that Donald Trump is refusing daily intelligence briefings. According to the president, any president-elect who refuses daily intelligence briefings is “flying blind.”
“I think the president-elect may say one thing and do another once he’s here because the truth of the matter is, it’s a big, complicated world,” he said. “It doesn’t matter how smart you are, you have to have the best information possible to make the best decisions possible … and if you’re not getting [the intel community’s] perspective, their detailed perspective, then you are flying blind.”
