Trumpet live.

Withdrawn from JCPOA with economic sanctions applied. And until the Iranian mullahs sufficiently capitulate to U.S. demands the U.S. will seek to defeat their aims everywhere and pursue people-empowering regime change in Iran itself.

I especially liked the bit when Trump said if HE were the ruling mullahs he'd probably negotiate the same way they currently are doing. Obviously he expects his new approach to yield successful results - he cited progress on North Korea as an example.

They are called the iranian government and not the mullah just how you don't like calling your state the zionist entity

It's not the same situation. When the State of Israel was formed the Zionists built their own new government. When the Shah fled and the other opposition groups were purged the mullahs then controlled an already-existing government structure and personnel, though they did add institutions of their own. So it's not difficult to envision a future with the ruling mullahs gone but most of the Iranian government pretty much intact.

What specifically about Trump's approach towards Iran is different from the pre-Obama US approach to Iran?

The difference is that Donald Trump eats 4 Macdonalds burgers per meal.

Pre-Obama? In 2007 the G.W. Bush administration determined Iran halted its nuclear arms program in 2003 and that Iran enriching uranium to weapons-grade levels could not occur until 2014 or so. But before the 2007 determination Bush warned that Iran's pursuit of nuclear weapons would have "serious consequences": link. So I'm not sure if Bush was president today that his approach to the JCPOA would be much different, though I imagine it would be more multilateral.
