President of the United States (2017–2021; since 2025)
What does this office do?
The President of the United States runs the executive branch of the federal government. This means the President makes sure federal laws are carried out, oversees many federal agencies, and chooses leaders for those agencies, usually with Senate approval. The President’s power covers the whole country, including Gainesville, Texas, but only on federal matters.
The President is also commander in chief of the military and represents the United States in dealing with other countries. The President can sign bills into law or veto them, but Congress writes most laws. The President cannot control Texas state government, Cooke County, or the City of Gainesville, though federal decisions can still affect daily life there.
