we need another Regan.

The unintended irony of your comment is hilarious. Of all US Presidents to ever negotiate with terrorists, Reagan is the most infamous.

Washington (CNN)—The White House will release on Wednesday a presidential directive and an executive order that will allow the government to communicate and negotiate with terrorist groups holding Americans hostage, a source briefed on the matter told CNN.

Officials will now be allowed to talk to those terror groups and discuss ways to secure the Americans' release, though the government will maintain its policy of not making "substantive concessions" to captors
