Nancy Reagan: "Just say no." Barbara Bush: "Get reading." Hillary Clinton: "Get healthy." Laura Bush: "Get educated." Michelle Obama: "Get moving." Melania Trump: "Buy my meme coin."

One of my favorite acting performances ever is James Caan in A Bridge Too Far. Everything about it is perfect, down to the way his hands shake when he holds the gun on the doctor. Not some iron, flawless he-man hero, but a guy determined to honor his word and willing to pay the cost to do it.
