That's how it used to be but as we know the constitution doesn' mean crap anymore.. You can get away with murder and stop people from testifying against you because you are the president.. There is no oversight and with a 50/50 split in senate there is no way anything can get passed.. The rep. use a rule so you need 60 votes for something to pass (which they cried about when they were in power and it was used)..
The president has all the power these days, they can change bills that were passed by congress and senate without their permission or approval..
