“Only the president can fulfill numerous critical roles. He alone has the authority to make final decisions on national security matters, launch nuclear missiles, sign executive orders, and serve as the armed forces commander-in-chief,” Bing West, retired Marine captain and a former assistant secretary of defense, reminds readers:
The president is also the primary representative of the United States on the global stage, engaging with foreign leaders and making decisions that affect international relations. These responsibilities demand a leader who is always fully engaged and capable.
… success as Seals relies on our trust in our leadership and the systems that support us. Knowing that the president is limited in his capacity to lead effectively erodes that trust. It’s akin to entering a mission without knowing if our commander is fully prepared or even present. The American people deserve a leader who is always ready to act in their best interests, not one who is only partially available.
