america has presidents, not kings
but we act like the president is in charge of everything, so much so, that the president's own party does *worse* in non-presidential elections, regardless of whether or not the president is well-liked, because (presumably, and probably among many other things) supporters of the president's party feel there's no risk in skipping elections ("hey, we've got the president! it's all good!")
