Admiral Quote by Ted Cruz

“As president, I wouldn't be making the day-to-day combat decisions. The job of the commander-in-chief is to lay the objective out and then you rely upon the generals and admirals and commanders to give you their expert advice on the tools needed to carry out that objective.” quote by Ted Cruz — Download Open image
