In an interview with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour, Alt Right News Site, Newsmax Media CEO Christopher Ruddy warned that Trump believes “generally, there’s a deep concern that on the eve of the North Korea summit, to have your Director of National Intelligence in open hearings undercutting your position.”Citing several White House sources, Ruddy claimed that President Trump has a “general disappointment” in Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats — and there may be a “change of leadership” .
Ruddy criticized Coats and the other Intelligence Chiefs for not supporting the President’s view of reality. “The intelligence chiefs… just went before an open session of Congress, and they openly said that they believe the president’s policies and efforts in North Korea are going to fail based on the intelligence. I think you have a classic example here where Director Coats is trying to make policy and not inform policy,” he continued. “The purpose of intelligence is to give the president the facts, let him decide and make the decisions, not to publicly declare that his policies are going to fail a week before he goes over to North Korea on this very important summit.”
Noting he had not spoken with the president on the matter, Ruddy said, “There’s just general disappointment of the president with Director Coats. There’s a feeling that maybe there needs to be a change of leadership in that position coming up.”
