If there is a legal question about who was elected as President, it is resolved by the Supreme Court (this happened in the 2000 election).

The Legislative branch, specifically the Senate

There are many ways Congress sought to limit the power of the executive branch. These are as follows: 1) Congress can override the veto of the president; 2) Congress can refuse to confirm presidential appointments; 3) Congress can impeach the president; 4) Congress can refuse to ratify presidential treaties.
No, the president cannot refuse to enforce a court ruling. The principle of checks and balances in the U.S. Constitution requires the executive branch to uphold and enforce the decisions made by the judicial branch.
The veto
The U.S. Senate has the authority to confirm or refuse presidential appointments. Specifically, the Senate reviews and votes on nominations for key positions, such as cabinet members, federal judges, and ambassadors. If the Senate votes against a nominee, the appointment is effectively rejected. This process serves as a check on the president's power to make appointments.
The executive branch checks the legislative branch primarily through the power of veto. When Congress passes legislation, the President can refuse to sign it into law, effectively blocking it. Additionally, the President can influence legislation through the power to propose bills and budget priorities, as well as the ability to issue executive orders, which can shape how laws are implemented. This interplay ensures that no single branch becomes too powerful.
Abrogating the will of the peoples representatives.If you ask this question "what is it called when the president refuses a bill" it is called a veto!!!The president can veto a bill. If a president refuses to sign a bill into law, it will become a law in 10 days after it was approved by congress.
It is uncertain if they are or are not. They refuse to confirm or deny it.
