wrong, at least not complete. this is indeed a misconception.

he is main command of the whole executive branch. otherwise we would only have warmongers or military people up there not politicians or law school graduate, neither businessmen or other known public figures.

he is commander in chief of all armed forces but that is not his "main job"

he is in part with congress running this country as a whole.

here is a better explanation
The president is not only commander-in-chief of the armed forces, but also swears to uphold and to protect the Constitution of the United States. He (or she) has the power to pardon criminal offenses, as well as the power of appointment of judges, ambassadors and other officers, with the ??advice and consent???? of the Senate, and the power to make treaties with other nations.
President of the United States: Job description: The Swamp

and even by being commander in chief of all armed forces, "taking care of citizens" still applies

wrongful wars and lies, are not any part of protecting or representing Americans. they only hurt us in the long run. Thus I rather agree with billionfold, a person who is willing to pursue dialogue and diplomacy, and perhaps exhaust this option before involving the nation and our soldiers and children in another war (wrongful or not), is a better choice for president and can certainly take a better care of his people.
