Answer:

C. Everyone-Congress, state governments, and judges-must follow the laws set forth in the Constitution, but the president does not have to.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note "but the president". No one is above the law, neither the law maker, or, in this case, the president. The statement is false, for the president must, in the first place, be a law-abiding citizen before they can even be a candidate for presidency. On top of that, breaking the law may lead to them to be impeached and put on trial.
