During the 20th century, the power of presidency has been very dominant and this led to changes in its presidential power. The development that occurred during this time is the expansion of the use of executive actions to fight against economic crises. The answer for this is option C.

I believe the answer is: C. The expanded use of executive actions to combat economic crises

The expanded use of executive actions tilt the balance of power in the government toward the executive branch. This happen because Even though technically executive actions can be override by the 2/3 of votes from the legislative branch, it is very difficult for the 2/3 votes to happen.
