In the movie “The Longest Day,” Maj. Werner Pluskat tried to warn his superior about the approaching armada that he was seeing on the horizon. His superior asks where they are heading, and Pluskat responds, “Straight for me!” In the days before the midterm “Democratic D-Day,” President Joe Biden has increasingly sounded like Werner Pluskat.

Both can save America albeit doing different jobs (short term). Trump has flaws, DeSantis has flaws….like any characteristic, there are situations where that ‘flaw’ is detrimental and...
