Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

Rommel wasn't a bad general but is still a great answer here just because of how absurdly overinflated the Golden Legend of St. Rommel is.

On a similar note, Lee.

Gettysburg was just flat out awful.

I actually wasn't familiar with the Gettysburg casualty numbers so I looked it up. Sustaining more losses than the Union while outnumbered by about 3:2 is terrible, yes, although it looks like the Seven Days Battles were about as bad only with somewhat fewer losses on both sides.
