Reduce Welfare
Welfare seems like something the president would have control over, but that isn’t the case. Any type of welfare reform needs to first be passed as a law or as part of a budget. This also means that it has to go through Congress, meaning the president doesn’t really have much control over it. The president can propose changes, but there’s no guarantee of any being passed.

Government Shut Down
Seeing as the president is the leader of the government, it would only make sense that they have the ability to shut down the government in case of an emergency or some kind of particular situation. However, this isn’t true. The only people that can shut down the government is the Senate after they fail to agree on a federal budget for the upcoming year. While there have been several government shutdowns in the past, none of them were enacted by a president.
