Explanation

The American Constitution's strict separation of powers means the executive (President) cannot make laws independently - only Congress can legislate. This is a fundamental principle underlying the entire constitutional structure. The reason directly explains why the assertion is true - separation of powers is the constitutional basis that prevents independent executive legislative authority.
