He will nix it at the last minute citing hamas

He won't need to nix anything - Hamas will not agree to a deal that does not actually hold Israel to a lasting ceasefire:

"After being briefed by the mediators about what happened in the last round of talks in Doha, we once again came to the conclusion that Netanyahu is still putting obstacles in the way of reaching an agreement, and is setting new conditions and demands with the aim of undermining the mediators' efforts and prolonging the war," Hamas said.

More specifically, Hamas objects to the fact that the proposal doesn't include a permanent ceasefire or comprehensive Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.

All this talk of a ceasefire deal is a PR stunt that allows the US to pretend like it's trying to make progress while still funneling weapons to Israel.
