Back then, Iran was on track to release the hostages but saint ronnie bribed them to keep them until after the election so he could cinch the election and then claim credit.

In this case, since trump is purely transactional, this is probably something like his way of giving his fellow criminal bibi cover to raze all of gaza so trump/kushner can build resorts on the Mediterranean.
