D Correct answer
Explanation

The President, as Chief Executive, is responsible for enforcing laws passed by Congress. This is a core executive branch duty. The President cannot "boss people around" (informal and incorrect), cannot pass laws (Congress's legislative role), and cannot decide punishments (judicial role). Option D correctly identifies the executive function, despite the minor typo "carried ou" instead of "carried out."
