The system of checks and balances that has been in place since the signing of the Constitution prevents the president from abusing his power. The Supreme Court has the power to investigate things that the president has done. If it is deemed necessary the Senate can impeach the president. Impeachment is a trial that can result in removal from office. Congress has power over a lot of what the president does. They approve the appointments, approve any legislations or treaties, etc. There are many more things in place to prevent the president from abusing his power. These things have been improved upon for the last few hundred years.
