Why did the framers of the Constitution create a system of checks and balances? What are two reasons why it is important for the president and Congress to work together?

In addition to this separation of powers, the framers built a system of checks and balances designed to guard against tyranny by ensuring that no branch would grab too much power.

Two reasons why it’s important for the president and the the Congress to work together The President may veto bills Congress passes, but Congress may also override a veto by a two-thirds vote in both the Senate and the House of Representatives.

I believe this is the answer I hope this sorta helps. :)
