Disinformation

Regarding Russian hacking, Trump says he knows things other don't and he will reveal that!  So he doesn't take intelligence briefings and he knows things that are not consistent with the information of 17 national security agencies.
His words are nothing but disinformation.  How can he believed when he dismisses the reliable sources within the American government and at the same time does not provide any alternative content?  Does he realize that he is setting himself and his government up to never be believed and trusted?
We know Trump has millions in outstanding loans.  But his tax returns are still a big secret.  How much does Trump owe to Russians?
He was explicit during the campaign, declaring that the CIA is the agency that declared Iran's weapons of mass destruction - which was incorrect, btw.  Does he really expect to run the country this way?
I go back to his frightening comment during the campaign that "I alone can fix it".  This is the stuff of authoritarianism, just as his dismissal of government generated information. 
In three weeks, he will own it.  Terrifying.
