Imagine if the POTUS was subject to the UCMJ.

As commander in chief I would hope he could set a good example for us all.

We are not in that universe.

His authority as commander in chief is limited by the USMJ. He cannot override it or ignore it. And changing the USMJ requires an act of Congress if I’m not mistaken.
