Grow Up Trump says Biden.
United States Vice-President, Joe Biden, has told President-elect Donald Trump to “grow up” and criticized his attacks on the intelligence community.
On Friday, Mr. Trump will be briefed on allegations Russia meddled in the U.S presidential election – claims he has cast doubt on.
Mr. Biden said it was “absolutely mindless” for the president-elect not to have faith in intelligence agencies.
Russia denied hacking alleged to have helped Mr. Trump defeat Hillary Clinton.
Late on Thursday, Mr. Trump questioned how intelligence agencies were confident about the alleged Russian hacking “if they never even requested an examination of the computer servers” belonging to the Democratic National Committee (DNC).
“For a president not to have confidence in, not to be prepared to listen to, the myriad intelligence agencies, from defence intelligence to the CIA, is absolutely mindless,” the BBC quoted Mr. Biden as saying in an interview with the PBS network.
“The idea that you may know more than the intelligence community knows – it’s like saying I know more about physics than my professor. I didn’t read the book, I just know I know more.”
When asked what he thought of Mr. Trump’s regular attacks on Twitter, Mr. Biden said: “Grow up Donald, grow up, time to be an adult, you’re president. Time to do something. Show us what you have.”
He went on to call Mr. Trump “a good man.”
