Is President Trump deliberately undoing the achievements of the Obama administration?

HARDtalk speaks to the former Deputy National Security Adviser for President Barack Obama. Does he feel the new occupant of the White House is undermining their legacy?

Sarah Montague speaks to Ben Rhodes who was Deputy National Security Adviser for President Barack Obama. During his time at the White House he developed such a close bond with the President that he earned a reputation for being able to anticipate his thinking and administration insiders described him as the single most influential voice shaping American foreign policy aside from Obama himself. So how does he feel about the new occupant of the White House and what he has done with their legacy?
