Based off of what I read from The Hill, Reuters, and AP, the memo didn't accomplish much other than stating stuff that was already known and then throwing Democrats, the FBI, and the Justice Dept. under the bus, so pretty much throwing everyone who isn't a Republican under the bus.
If anything, this move is just making Trump and his administration look even worse, since they're actively trying to divide the US even more rather than try to unify it. Releasing the memo was seen as a bad move from both sides (and by proxy, seen as a bad move by people identifying themselves in the middle), since even Republicans spoke up against releasing it due to it not being 100% transparent and missing a lot of facts.

Let's hope he does release it so he can be seen as at least wanting to be transparent about the whole thing) to fill in the gaps that were made. I'd like to see that memo so I can get both sides of the story, since the released one is missing quite a bit of information, and it's using heavy strokes with a heavy bias.

Mobile is an obstacle that's not very well optimized.
