I think Trump is the side in this negotiation that is desperate for a deal.

His usual spiel is he doesn't care. It's always the other party that comes to him on bended knee, tears streaming down their cheeks, begging for a deal, according to him.

That being said, former Trump security advisor, Joe Kent, said out loud, last week, what I have suspected all along: the negotiations were "theater". Trump keeps adding more demands, that are intended to be poison pills, to sabotage the negotiations. I posted the link to that interview before. Recall, over last weekend, the news reported Trump had made more, "tougher" demands, of Iran, as Joe Kent predicted.

Trump sends tougher demands back to Iran


https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/trump...

Iran finally figured out Trump was not negotiating in good faith, they were being played, and said "f-you".

...because Israel did not want a negotiated settlement with the existing Iranian regime. Israel wants the regime crushed and the country tipped into civil war. Now that the negotiation kabuki dance is done, the only way to open the Strait is a ground invasion of Iran, to topple the government. USians will be buffaloed into supporting the invasion, by the financial pressure of soaring gas prices.
