SCIUTTO: So, Mr. Ambassador, you heard that Donald Trump claiming there to have new information that, in effect, no one else knows. What information could he have that the 17 intelligence agencies do not and that, for instance, he hasn't already received in his presidential daily briefing or that House members who have been briefed on the intelligence don't have?

WOOLSEY: Hacking leaves a lot of room for weaving around like this. And Donald Trump is an expert at this kind of weaving around and attracting everybody's attention.

It's exactly what he did during the campaign.

SCIUTTO: You're saying he is weaving around by talking about this putative new information?

WOOLSEY: First talk about what I know, and then after talking to somebody else, what I know is a little different. And each one gets a headline, each one . ..

SCIUTTO: Right.

WOOLSEY: I think the point is…

SCIUTTO: You are saying he is playing us, in effect?

WOOLSEY: There is a possibility that he is a little bit, yes.
