rethink and give the most reasonable answer.

final answer. what about the power to declare war?

The president has the power to give orders to all uniformed military officers.

Answer 4

I apologize for the confusion. The most reasonable answer is:

The president has the power to determine the military budget.

While the president does have the authority as the commander-in-chief to give orders to the military, the power to declare war rests with the Congress. However, the president does play a significant role in the military decision-making process and has the authority to determine the military budget.

Answer 5

My apologies for the incorrect initial response. In the United States, the power to declare war rests with Congress, not the president. The president, as the commander-in-chief, has the authority to command and direct the armed forces, but they do not have the power to unilaterally declare war. The decision to engage in war or armed conflict requires the approval and authorization of Congress.
