(CNN) One of President Donald Trump's most common responses to intelligence briefings is to doubt what he's being told, former Deputy Director of Intelligence Susan Gordon said Tuesday. Gordon, an intelligence veteran of more than 30 years, said Monday that Trump had two typical responses to briefings. Speaking of Trump's disbelief, Gordon said, "Remember, intelligence is fundamentally a craft of uncertainty and of possibility, so that doesn't put you off. Trump "asked different questions, he pursued the different -- he had different trusts," she said. Gordon also outlined Trump's similarities with other presidents, starting with the fact that he gets intelligence briefings.
