A subsidy for states under the Affordable Care Act has been ruled unconstitutional by a federal judge and will no longer be funded, and today President Trump announced that the US would probably be leaving the Iran Deal. All that has added up to a bad day for former members of the Obama administration, including Ben Rhodes. Here’s one just for starters:
Trump is endangering the health care of Americans and constraints on Iran's nuclear program. Only organizing principle: opposition to Obama

Rhodes made some big assumptions in that tweet:

That’s what Rhodes hopes everybody believes. Fortunately not everybody buys the previous administration’s propaganda.

Weird how that works, right?

Ben is projecting. The only reason he supports these things is support for Obama. https://t.co/WqGOArHFhT

We’ll wait while Rhodes answers this one:

But most of Rhodes’ hyperventilating today is over the thought of scrapping the previous administration’s coveted Iran Deal:
Hard to overstate how irresponsible it is for Trump to risk blowing up Iran Deal by demanding rest of world justify his campaign rhetoric

EU High Representative Mogherini slammed Trump really hard, by the way. Kind of remarkable to see such an open spat between close allies,

What happens when Trump picks a fight with America's closest allies for no reason. This is devastating to US credibility and leadership https://t.co/15zzR6U1Bz

"I may very well do that," @POTUS to question about possibly tearing up #IranDeal after Congress reviews it

This is an insane way to run American foreign policy. Literally and figuratively. https://t.co/h7Lzvo0psz

Apparently red lines, pallets of cash and reset buttons are the way to go when it comes to smart foreign policy. What’s even more insane?
