This argument about whose decision something was and telling the truth about that is a bogus one, IMO. When "decisions" are made, there is a lot of staff work preparing a recommendation, then a lot of vetting of the recommendation, and, when it's a decision where the optics matter, there are recommendations and vetting about whose "decision" it should be. Then that official signs the decision. Part of the decision is picking the deciding official.

So an official could assert that it was his decision and mean that he was the designated decision-maker or he could mean what we in common parlance consider to be making a decision.
