What Trump hopes to do is to renegotiate the Nuclear Deal by throwing all the other stuff like the terrorism, regional issues, Israel, missiles in there and get an agreement on all of them at the same time. This approach was tried once before under Ahmadinejad and with strong support from NIAC and other IR Regime lobbyists. It was called “The Grand Bargain” which failed and did not get anywhere, as expected.
What Obama did was to de-couple all the issues and go after them one-at-a-time and by applying a “Carrot and Stick” strategy solve as many of them as possible. Trump neither has a strategy, nor the partners or the leverage. So it’s going to be a lot of slogans and threats, but not much substance.
