    Oh, sorry, for a minute there I thought he was the commander in chief and that the policies enacted under his supervision were to reflect on him directly

    Silly me.

      That was pretty silly. Especially given that “commander-in-chief” refers to his position in the U.S. military structure and has no bearing on his legislation and domestic policies.

      There’s a big difference between “reflecting on him” and actually being the one to write the policy. I don’t see why the former is an issue.

      That’s the “unitary executive” theory, which is specifically GOP doctrine.
