You’re describing an autocracy, a dictatorship. Of course they aren’t allowed to do what they want, there’s supposed to be this thing called the rule of law, "checks and balances", separation of powers, any of that ring a bell? Plus a two-party system is a fundamentally malignant example of democracy, not to even mention the crazy amount of power the POTUS has compared to well-functioning democracies.

I didn't mean "do what they want" as in ignoring law.

I meant "do what they want" as in: the winning party gets to choose the policy. The winning party can ignore the will of the losing party.
