Democratic California Sen. Adam Schiff stated Sunday on NBC that if former President Donald Trump is the Republican nominee, the intelligence community should “dumb down” his briefings.

Schiff appeared on “Meet the Press” to discuss his recent win in advancing to the general election for potentially filling late Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s seat and his future campaign plans. NBC host Kristen Welker questioned Schiff on Trump’s potential intelligence briefing by U.S. officials as the former chair of the House Intelligence Committee before being replaced by former Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.

 

“Congressman, let me ask you about this development this weekend. U.S. intelligence officials are planning to provide briefings for Donald Trump if he officially secures the nomination, despite the fact that he’s facing 40 felony charges for his handling of classified documents. As the former chair of the house intelligence committee do you think it’s appropriate for him to receive intelligence briefings?” Welker questioned.
