He doesn’t handle them at all.

Why not?

He explains that information could be given to him, then later someone else leaks it and then points the finger at him.

A classic setup.

But Trump’s not falling for that.

He wasn’t born yesterday.

It’s clips like these that just remind us that Trump is playing 5D chess.

Newsmax reports:

President Donald Trump turned down intelligence briefings in his role as the Republican nominee for president, the DailyMail.com reported Thursday.

“I don’t want them, because, number one, I know what’s happening. It’s very easy to see what’s happening,” Trump toldthe news outlet.

It has been standard practice for presidential nominees to receive intelligence briefings from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence after securing a nomination. The practice initiated with former President Harry Truman in the 1950s with the aim of better preparing the candidates for a smooth transition of power in case they are elected.

“So, I don’t want that, because as soon as I get that, they’ll say that I leaked it,” Trump told DailyMail.com, adding, “So they best way to handle that situation is, I don’t need that briefing. They come in, they give you a briefing, and then two days later, they leak it, and then they say you leaked it.

“I’ll have plenty of them when I get in.”

DailyMail writes:

President Donald Trump said Wednesday he would not be getting intelligence briefings as the Republican nominee for president for fear of being accused of leaking classified information.

U.S. spy agencies offer briefings to presidential candidates once they have secured their party’s nomination to prepare them for life as commander in chief.

But after the F.B.I. recovered government documents including classified papers at his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida, critics questioned whether Trump could be trusted with sensitive information.

In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, the former president said he could now get the briefings if he wanted them but sensed a trap.

‘I don’t want them, because, number one, I know what’s happening. It’s very easy to see what’s happening,’ he said before attacking President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, his newly installed election opponent.

‘We have an incompetent leader, and we have two incompetent leaders.

‘We have a Marxist that’s going to try and be president, and this country is not ready for a Marxist or a communist president, and that’s what she is.

‘She destroyed San Francisco, she destroyed California, and this country is not ready for it.

‘So I don’t want that, because as soon as I get that, they’ll say that I leaked it.

‘So the best way to handle that situation is, I don’t need that briefing. They come in, they give you a briefing, and then two days later, they leak it, and then they say You leaked it.

‘So the only way to solve that problem is not to take it I don’t want it understood. I’ll have plenty of them when I get in.’

Trump made his comments after a major set-piece speech in Asheboro, North Carolina, where he laid out his national security priorities, including demanding the resignations of officials involved in the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan.
