NEW: Trump now says he is not confident he can keep the ceasefire in Gaza, telling reporters it is "not our war."
He says that Gaza "has to be rebuilt" and "some beautiful things" could be done with the land because it is "on the sea" and has "the best weather."

REPORTER: How confident are you that you can keep the ceasefire in Gaza?
TRUMP: I'm not confident. That's not our war. It's their war ... Gaza is interesting. It's a phenomenal location.

Many of Trump EO’s either don’t do much, are so poorly written they don’t even do what he seemed to want them to do, or are so outrageously unconstitutional they are going to face immediate court challenges.
Definitely a “flood the zone with shit” moment though.

It’s almost like Trump is some sort of grandiose narcissist or something
For all Trump's talk of manufacturing jobs, you didn't see the CEOs of GE and Caterpillar sitting in the prime seats today. You saw the CEOs of Amazon and X and Meta and Google and TikTok.
It's the attentional oligarchs whose power he cares about.

If you really want to feel like a dried out husk of a human, go back and read contemporaneous accounts of what constituted “scandals” under Obama. The tan suit. The teleprompter. The “professorial” demeanor. They just kept making up rules for him as they keep breaking them for Trump.
