So are you saying that the media is making this story up, or that you are incapable of figuring out for yourself whether or not it sounds credible?

That's nutso.

He's going to demand Trump be impeached if he so much as forgets to tie one of his shoelaces.

Interesting read. Especially the part that mentions Bill Clinton not having his first briefing until ten days after his election, a time frame in which Trump had already had two.

If true, perhaps he's just following in the footsteps of Obama ... who skipped 1/2 of his in person briefings.

Obama, did do this or don't you remember?

Honestly, what difference does it make?

Whatever the briefing is today, a President-elect can do nothing about it and its all on Obama who hopefully is getting the same briefing.

Presumably, when it does matter, i.e. after the inauguration, either Trump, Pence or both will be getting the briefing and acting on it as necessary.

The more important thing for Trump at this point is to fill his key positions.

Obama Missed More Than Half Of Intelligence Briefings, Government Accountability Report Says

Fox News contributor Karl Rove claimed that President Obama skipped intelligence briefings following the September 11 attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya. In fact, Obama received multiple intelligence briefings after the attack, including on September 12, and the right-wing media claim that Obama regularly skips presidential daily briefings has been refuted.

Wash. Post Fact Checker Rates Claim That Obama "Skips" His Intelligence Briefings "Bogus." In a post responding to Thiessen's September 10 column, Washington Post fact checker Glenn Kessler gave the claim that Obama "skips" his daily intelligence briefings three of four Pinocchios, calling it "bogus." Kessler wrote that Obama reads his presidential daily brief every day, but does not "always require an in-person briefing," so it is "specious to say he has 'skipped' " meetings that were not actually scheduled. Kessler also noted that "different presidents have structured their daily briefing from the CIA" in different ways and that "[m]any did not have an oral briefing."

It is funny how the media got the election wrong, or wanted people to believe Hillary would win i.e... lied yet they still listen to them for the daily fix of hate and lies.

The funny thing is that people are posting about stuff that no one has ever cared about before.
