Should WE negotiate with the enemies of America or just invade OUR White House?
Should we try to appease or negotiate with the enemy, the enemy who has overtaken our government and occupied our White House, or just invade and permanently occupy it?

Should we the people offer to meet with our enemies, give them our offer, and tell them what we'll do if they refuse it? Our enemy has nuclear weapons, weapons of mass destruction, and they sell arms to nations who are hostile to us. Our enemy threatens not only our own nation, but basically any nation it sees fit to threaten, should we meet with them and try to avert more wars, or should we simply throw them out of our White House and throw them into prison, without lawyers or visitors?

Neville Chamberlain negotiated with Adolph Hitler, and look how that all turned out. Our enemy is killing us, our enemy is extremely powerful and doesn't practice negotiation or capitulation, why should we?

1. I'm afraid my answer would result in an unscheduled trip to an occupied part of Cuba......

2. "Take no prisoners, show no mercy"
the old Soap Creek Saloon security motto.

6. We would be "liberators", not "invaders". The coup took place 8 years ago.

7. They have shown that there is no negotiating with them.
Negotiations can only take place if both sides agree to compromise. As the Democrats have amply demonstrated, when only one side negotiates, it is simply capitulation.
