In fact the President of the United States appoints his own cabinet officials, ambassadors, ministers, etc.

It is generally stated that every new president has the privilege of making more than ten thousand appointments.

With regard to the administration and executive functions he has in practice more power than is usually exercised by a king or an emperor of a Constitutional Monarchy.

On the other hand, in some matters, the executive of a Republic cannot do what a king or an emperor can do; for example, a president cannot declare war against a foreign nation without first obtaining the consent of Congress.

In a monarchical government the king or the cabinet officials assume enormous responsibilities.
