POPSChris Matthews vs. Kevin James MATTHEWS: You don’t know what you’re talking about, Kevin. You don’t know what you’re talking about. Tell me what Chamberlain did wrong. JAMES: Neville Chamberlain was an appeaser, Chris. Neville Chamberlain was an appeaser, all right? MATTHEWS: I’ve been sitting here five minutes asking you to say what the president was referring to in 1938 at Munich. JAMES: I don’t know. MATTHEWS: You don’t know, thank you. You don’t understand there’s a difference between talking to the enemy and appeasing. What Chamberlain did wrong, most people would say, is not talking to Hitler, but giving half of Czechoslovakia in 1938. That’s what he did wrong. Appeasement is giving things away to the enemy.

"And the assumption would be that could occur within a period of a few months, if it hadn't happened already."
