",,,made grandiose claims about how easy it was going to be,"

Laving is easy. The hard bit is trying - unjustifiably - to retain the few benefits that there are. There is no reason why we should expect the EU to agree to that without a considerable price and the sooner we realise that and make a clean break the better. Those wailing on about how hard business will be hit by a "hard" (i.e. proper) departure should realise that huge numbers of very successful companies across the world manage without their countries being EU members or without any trading agreement between them and the EU. It needs a bit of thought and application - something that seems a trifle lacking among our politicians and business leaders because they have had forty years of sub-contracting such matters out to other people.
"the EU has been nothing but consistent about its goals from the beginning"
Indeed, it has but the one. Stop Brexit and/or screw as much as possible out of the UK.

The UK has been clear too. It wishes to leave and agree as good a future trade agreement as can be hammered out at the negotiation table. No one can reasonably ask for more.

Meanwhile we get uncooperative responses for issues that ought not be an issue at all, such as the NI border; an example of something that the EU is clearly determined to cause trouble with. I don't find any evidence that they have any other objective than to be as obstructive as possible and still have the gall (or should that be the Gaul ?) to blame the UK.
// issues that ought not be an issue at all, such as the NI border //
Yep, that is very easy to solve. We want to keep People out of the UK, so we have to pay lots of money protecting our border.
The EU wants to put tariffs on British goods entering the EU, so it (or rather ROI) have to pay lots of money to keep British products out.
Other than who pays, there isn't much to argue about.
