inhibit the execution of the laws

Can anyone weigh in on whether this was phrased oddly for legal reasons or whether trump’s team is as inept as he is?

"ChatGPT, here's an executive order, make it sound legalish"

IANAL, but I'm guessing it's to bring a sense of legitimacy to an otherwise batshit insane order. I feel like the Fed knows what they're doing is illegal, but phrasing it this way makes it seem sane to their base (who too are batshit insane).

January 6th was a TOURIST VISIT that we Need to FORGET happened because ANTIFA and BLM made it VIOLENT and ONLY MAGAS got Arrested!

I also CANT READ so this Executive Order means NOTHING to me! I LOVE Trump and I LOVE Freedom!

That’s why Miller made a point to call it an insurrection multiple times.

Gotta love how this is written in first person from trumps perspective as if he is literate and understand anything at all.
