Priebus: ‘Just Not True’ Trump Is Skipping Daily Briefings

‘I mean, this is a little bit ridiculous and over the top’

PRIEBUS: "It’s just not true. He’s doing his intelligence briefings every day, and we do the presidential briefing. I think this week we’ll have three presidential briefings in the five days. I mean, this is a little bit ridiculous and over the top. Look, he’s very prepared. We spent all day, every day, in his office, every half an hour meeting with someone different, whether it be about world affairs, whether it be domestic issues, interviews for cabinet positions. Yesterday, he spoke with President Obama as well for quite a long time talking about a number of issues. So this is just a little bit, you know — look, people are slicing and dicing right now and it’s December. It’s ten days before Christmas. It’s interesting and everything is Donald Trump all the time, but that’s okay because he’s ready. We’re excited, and he’s doing a fantastic job."
