The diplomat is obviously experienced in the way politics works.. Write the memo to paint a narrative and then, oops, somehow it got out to the press.

Pretty obvious Trump has been dissing Obama from day one.
It's only racists who would lap the like of that up, more so, Trump's never ending comments about Obama only show Trump himself as being racist...anyone who thinks different is a fool. So, there it is, a Racist, Xenophobe in the White House..ain't that something!
You’re a racist for not agreeing with me. Says every progressive that doesn’t get their way. We see right through it and only the most ignorant people use it.

The majority of Americans [mostly white] who voted for him had high hopes when Obama was voted in. Now not so much.

Why is Trump accused of warmongering?
Trump walked away from the deal for seemingly his own petty reasons and had no plan in place to deal with the fallout of that decision , he's ratcheted up tensions in the region by sending troops and equipment in what appears to be a replay of his strong man diplomacy like he did with North Korea , Iran isn't North Korea.
No one is accusing Trump of warmongering but some in his administration are warmongers and sometimes actions have unforeseen consequences that can lead to war.
Iran , mainly through US sanctions is a wounded animal cornered , the danger is obvious.

Following threats by the Met police about publishing leaked emails the Daily Mail has stuck to its guns and published more revelations , this time in regard to the reason the Iran Nuclear deal was scrapped ....
Funny people want to defend Iran and pretend the nuclear deal actually did anything.
in the agreement it restricted production for 10 years. After the 10 years Iran is allowed under the agtrrement to move to full production.
The windfall of sanctions relief freed up tens of billions of dollars to finance Tehran's many destabilizing activities. Iran increased its military budget 145% over the course of President Rouhani's first term.Iran continues to take Americans and other Westerners hostage, detaining at least five Americans and six other Westerners since the nuclear deal was reached.
Then this deal sets up a worldwide arms race.
Your apparently the type to do nothing.
Now the reason I focus on Iran is its the topic of the op. you bringing up Sadi Arabia is just a sad attempt to justify a broken agreement that no one should have agreed to.
