Ben Rhodes was President Barack Obama's deputy national security adviser during the administration that was well known for the Iran Deal and coddling that regime via pallets of cash and other means.
During the overnight hours in the United States, President Trump announced strikes against Iran. The U.S. was joined by Israel in the operation that is ongoing.
Not surprisingly, Rhodes disapproves on behalf of the Iranian regime:

Ah, yes ... how so NOT surprising.
Rhodes calls Trump's second term the "worst case scenario" - it certainly is for libs who coddled the Iranian mullahs.
RBe (@RBPundit) ~ {Replying to @brhodes} The Iranian Mullahs were able to get a message out via their U.S. spokesman, Ben Rhodes.

Trump's second term has been the worst case scenario "for U.S. Democrats who welcomed illegal aliens by the millions and were apologists for terrorist regimes."
Rhodes was, of course, also against Trump's previous strikes on Iran - and elsewhere for that matter.
Tim Murtaugh (@TimMurtaugh) ~ {Replying to @brhodes} The Obama crew weeps for the mullahs.
Won't someone PUHLEEEASE think about the poor mullahs?!
Reaganette (@Ezinger44) ~ {Replying to @brhodes} Cry more Ben. He is just destroying our enemies - the ones you worked with.
Deebs (@DeebsFLA) ~ {Replying to @brhodes} Sorry your mullah boys are getting iced, Slingblade.
Hmmm ... looks like an appropriate comparison ...

Guy Benson (@guypbenson) ~ {Replying to @brhodes} Yeah ... bad for Iran’s murderous regime & therefore for you - its biggest fan.
Max Twain (@MaxTwain24) ~ {Replying to @brhodes} Cheer up, Ben. There’s an ayatollah job opening you’d be perfect for.
Please respect Team Obama's privacy during this difficult time.
Respect?
Not gonna happen.
