this is a president who does not read his pdb. this is not president who is not orally briefed about the specifics of russia. they don't do that because they don't want to make him angry. he has now stripped the clearances from a very public critic of his pro-putin policies. john brennan last night talking about donald trump's affinity for autocrats, his affinity for vladimir putin. his desire to polarize our country and his sort of penchant for dividing us as americans. those all seem like clear kremlin goals. are you growing more or less concerned about the direction of donald trump's foreign policy? >> well, i think, nicolle, just like you have, this is nothing new. he has shown this sort of behavior for a long time now, and so am i growing more concerned? yes, but i've been concerned for a long time and i think anyone who is paying attention has been concerned as well. you know, these clearances, they're not prizes, they're not given out to people for doing good work. they're used by the government
