Getty Trump says he'll unveil national security team

Donald Trump says he's got a big announcement coming: his national security team.

Asked by conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt Monday if he's ready to roll out his national security team the real estate mogul said, "We're going to be announcing something very soon. We have a great team of people."


The comment come less than a full week after Trump, speaking on a battleship in California, vowed that if elected "we're gonna make our military so big and so strong and so great and it will be so powerful that I don't think we're ever going to have to use it."

And it took place with the same radio host who recently exposed Trump's lack of knowledge of Middle East politics, befuddling him with questions about Iran's Quds Force, which Trump misheard as "Kurds."

In the new interview with Hewitt, Trump did not name any names, but said he had been meeeting with generals and "national security people."

"And I think they like what I say about other things, also," Trump said. "But they want to be involved, and we have a great team in place, or shortly will be in place. But they've actually come to me and said we'd like to be involved."

Trump previously told NBC's Chuck Todd that he got his national security advice from "the shows."
