Re: U.S President: Donald Trump

And the Judiciary and the Legislative arms of the Government are there to provide oversight and governance on the Executive (the President) - he is not a dictator who can do what he wants, even if that is what is voters want.

Constitution

The Founding Fathers, the framers of the Constitution, wanted to form a government that did not allow one person to have too much control. With this in mind they wrote the Constitution to provide for a separation of powers, or three separate branches of government.

Each has its own responsibilities and at the same time they work together to make the country run smoothly and to assure that the rights of citizens are not ignored or disallowed. This is done through checks and balances. A branch may use its powers to check the powers of the other two in order to maintain a balance of power among the three branches of government.
