What is it about one-time speechwriters for the former POTUS anyway? It seems as if we are never to be free of the moaning’s, groaning’s and second guessing of these self professed ‘geniuses’ from the Obama administration.
A case in point would be Ben Rhodes. The man still considers himself an expert on foreign policy, despite the fact that his most notable foreign policy “achievements” are negotiating a deal with a country that was apparently directing sonic weapon attacks against U.S. personnel and cramming a large plane full of taxpayer’s money (unbeknownst to taxpayers at the time) and having it flown to a country (in the dead of night) which holds “Death to America” celebrations. All this in order to pay a “not a ransom” ransom.
You would think that Ben might want to just fade into obscurity and pray to himself that he doesn’t become known as the Neville Chamberlin of this generation, but no – you seen Ben likes to tweet, and tweet and tweet.
These tweets are (as you can well imagine) highly critical of the Trump administration’s handling of everything.
Here are some examples of the giant brain that is Ben Rhodes
Trump at UN totally alienating the US from our allies and taking a position that will have no global support https://t.co/8TOmttmwxC

Well sure, the illustrious Obama administration never engaged in saber rattling (well, except when they did)
Threats of war. Attacks on diplomacy. No regard for allies. Silence on Russia. Trump is upending intl order and decades of US leadership https://t.co/3QHThFzCaO

Apparently the worldly wise Mr. Rhodes defines leadership as drawing red lines in the sand that you have absolutely no intention of enforcing.
Basically it appears as if Rhodes wants to Monday morning quarterback the decisions that the Trump administration has been forced to make due to the crummy foreign policy (or lack thereof) enacted by Obama cronies like Rhodes.
Earth seems much more able to demonstrate the cynicism and moral bankruptcy of Trump / GOP climate stance than American politics and media https://t.co/EnQ2P9e39u

According to Rhodes, even the weather is Trump’s fault (or something).
