The job of making laws lies in the Legislative Branch of Government. The House of Representatives and Senate introduce ideas or bills and then they are voted on in each house. If the bills pass then they become law. They are sent to the president for his signature. If he doesn't like the law then he can veto the bill and then it goes back to congress for another vote. The president's job it to enforce the laws and the constitution.

∙ 10y agoNO, ABSOLUTELY NOT! Executive orders may only be given in the process of executing and enforcing Federal Laws that have been passed by Congress and either signed by a President or legally made law over a President's veto, or in exercising another Presidential power granted by the Constitution, such as in his role as Commander in Chief of the U.S. Armed Forces.
