As part of the Executive Branch, the President had very limited Legislative power.
Realistically, there is only one: the power to sign or Veto bills passed by Congress. All other powers of the President revolve around enforcing existing laws, not creating new ones.
The sole (possible) exception could be the President's power to negotiate treaties, which can be construed as a legislative power (since a treaty creates legally binding law). However, as the President only negotiates them, not actually enacts them into law (the US Senate does that), including this power as a "legislative" power is weak.
From its one chamber the legislature of the Second Continental Congress exercised both legislative and executive powers. Therefore, it is known as a unicameral legislature.
The power to make treaties and confirm the presidents appointments
umm, the legislative power and of course democratic!:)
I would argue that the Legislative branch has at least two important powers over the judicial branch: 1) the ability to approve or reject presidential nominations for judicial office; 2) the power of impeachment over federal judges and justices.
Article I of the US Constitution establishes the Legislative Branch, defining the structure of the two houses of Congress and the powers of each. The article also defines the qualifications for elections and the congressional terms. (For the text and links to amendments, see the related link.)

Article I grants all legislative powers of federal government to the Congress divided into two chambers; the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Congress can overrule any vetoes passes by the President on any bills that Congress originally wanted to get added as Amendments to the Constution. However, they can only overrule the Presidents' veto if two-thirds of the Congress still votes to pass the bill. Hope this helps!!!:)
