Answer:
C. Pardoning those convicted of crimes
Explanation:
Article II of the U.S. Constitution, which outlines the functions and duties of the Executive Branch, grants the President the power to pardon those convicted of crimes. Section 2 of the same article states:
and he shall have the power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment.
The other answers are incorrect because the President can not override Supreme Court decisions, he can only influence this branch by appointing their judges (A), he or she neither has the power to appoint members of Congress as these are elected by direct popular vote only (B), and his or her jobs is to enforce laws that have already been voted on by Congress, the President themselves cannot vote on laws.
