After Benjamin Netanyahu revealed how the Iran Deal was “based on Iranian lies and Iranian deception,” a lot of people couldn’t wait to hear what Ben Rhodes had to say about it.
This afternoon, Rhodes finally broke his silence … by spinning up a storm:
Trump is about to pointlessly precipitate a crisis that splits the U.S. from our allies and risks nuclear proliferation and dangerous escalation in the Middle East for no reason other than his mindless opposition to whatever Obama did. https://t.co/hruGBrfEHJ

By reminding everyone of the well-known pre-Iran Deal history, Netanyahu inadvertently made the case for why the Iran Deal needs to stay in place. Without it, all the restrictions on Iran's program and the inspections regime that verify compliance go away. https://t.co/413xzEItQj

There’s that argument again: We knew the Iranian regime was lying, so we had to do the deal with them! Honestly, we’d expect nothing less from the likes of Ben Rhodes.
I can’t be the only one ROLMAO with this clown tweet

Here's where Ben gaslights everyone by saying that they all knew about the stuff no one knew about until yesterday. https://t.co/Bxr5aDe18t

This explains why you front-loaded the concessions to Iran and included the sunset provisions. Wait, no it doesn't. https://t.co/hAPXSZtF9j

You're not even attempting to pretend that this isn't solely about your old boss's ego.

Props for the complete lack of any self-awareness and shame on your part for even commenting on this, the abject collapse of Obama’s signature foreign policy accomplishment.

It’s too late to save himself from all the past embarrassment, but he could still prevent future self-ownage. Though, in all honesty, he probably has no reason to as long as the media remain so firmly in the tank for Obama.
Let's sit back and watch the media hold @brhodes accountable for his hackery.
LOLOLOL Just kidding.
