Former CIA Director John Brennan has an excerpt of his new book, Undaunted, in The Atlantic: “His alertness never faded during the briefing, but his demeanor as well as his questions strongly revealed that he was uninterested in finding out what the Russians had done or holding them to account…”
“It also was my clear impression — based on the thousands of such briefings I have conducted over more than three decades — that he was seeking most to learn what we knew and how we knew it. This deeply troubled me, as I worried about what he might do with the information he was being given… As the briefing was beginning to wrap up, Trump looked at me and made unsolicited disparaging remarks about human sources.”
Said Trump: “Anyone will say anything if you pay them enough. I know that, and you know that.”
