U.S. politics

U.S. politics involves the process of making national decisions through elected representatives. The government has three branches: legislative (Congress), executive (President), and judicial (Supreme Court). Two main political parties, Democrats and Republicans, often hold differing views on issues like economy, healthcare, and social policy. Elections determine leadership, with the President elected every four years. Laws are created by Congress and signed by the President, while courts interpret laws. The system balances power among branches and states, aiming to ensure government accountability and protect individual rights. Political debate and party differences shape policy and governance in the United States.
