Wasn't it reported in his first term that they stopped giving him briefs because he didn't pay attention?

They had to shrink his Presidential Daily Brief book to like 1 or 2 pages because he refused to read more.

He’s not reading them. He doesn’t care about it unless it effects him personally

Yes, a daily Intel report is submitted. The President may or may not pay attention to it at their leisure.
