Can Trump reach a nuclear deal with Iran?

The inconvenient truth is that the Islamic Republic’s opposition to the United States and Israel is ideological and not based on miscommunications or misconceptions. This is why diplomacy between the United States and Iran has failed for four decades. The Iranian regime has weaponised diplomatic processes to exhaust larger powers like the United States and neutralise pressure campaigns. The Trump administration now has a chance to show the Iranians that the US will not be extorted, exhausted, or cowed.
