No, not at all. John Brennan was the architect of this plan. He is a top US intelligence official who was instrumental in advising the Bush Administration in the run-up to and the execution of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. He was highly regarded and respected by cons then.
Obama trusted him enough to appoint him as his CIA chief. Brennan's priority was to diminish and PREVENT Iran from achieving nuclear weapons, and this deal was in furtherance of that goal. Brennan identified Hezbollah as a key power in the government of Iran and de-nuclearization of that country required dealing with them.
Despite some media reports and Trumps' continued attacks, that Iranian nuclear deal/sanctions are working in keeping them from making progress towards a nuclear weapon. There has been on-going and frequent in-person monitoring by a multi-national agency to ensure compliance, and their reports, along with those of our intelligence agencies, have consistently said Iran is complying, despite Trump's denials.
I believe their reports.
