Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump got his first look Wednesday at classified intelligence on threats to the United States and other security issues. Trump left the briefing in lower Manhattan without talking to reporters. On Wednesday morning, Trump seemed to downplay the potential value of the briefing and questioned whether he could put trust in the information. However, the first-time candidate, despite having foreign policy advisers, has limited intimate knowledge of the inter-workings of U.S. intelligence agencies. Trump was accompanied to the roughly one-hour briefing by retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn and New Jersey GOP Gov.
