I believe Trump has no sympathy or desire to help the struggling democratic revolution in Iran. Its all about what he personally, can profit from it.

He will use whatever leverage is there, this time a volatile population and a diminishing ally in Russia, to squeeze out a deal. The orange king gets a certain number of million, or billion, in his families bank account, and he'll let you stay in power to torture, murder and abuse your more liberal citizens
