Here is what happened during the 25th week of Trump in power

Friday, the brand brand of President Donald Trump and the week of First Lady Melania Trump included the touch in Kerrville, Texas, after massive floods in the region claimed the lives of more than 120 people.

The president and the first lady met local officials and the first speakers who are addressed to the benefits and the devastation of the sudden floods which struck the central community of Texas, after the Guadalupe river jumped more than 22 feet in a few hours.

“I have never seen anything like it. It’s bad,” said Trump during a round table on Friday with local officials and speakers.

In addition to the lives lost in the flood, the managers report that more than 160 people are missing and not counted in the county of Kerr, Texas.

“So, across the country, the hearts of Americans are broken across the country,” said Trump. “We are filled with sorrow and devastation. It is the loss of life, and unfortunately, they always look.”

“My administration does everything in its power to help Texas,” he said.

Those who died during the floods were at least 27 campers and advisers of Camp Mystic, a Christian summer camp founded almost 100 years ago for girls.

“They were there because they loved God,” said Trump during the round table. “And as we mourn this unthinkable tragedy, we take comfort in the knowledge that God welcomed these little girls in his comforting arms in the sky.”

Here is what also happened this week:

Cabinet meeting

Trump held a meeting of the cabinet on Tuesday where he discussed plans to visit the floods in Texas.

“I’m going to go off on Friday with the First Lady, and we’ll take a trip,” said Trump. “And we don’t want to bother anyone, because you know, that’s what’s going on. The president leaves, and everyone is focused. I don’t want anyone who is focused on us, but they may have.”

Trump also addressed SpaceX and Tesla, the new land of the CEO Elon Musk for a third political party, following the signing of the so-called “Big and Beautiful Bill” of Trump on July 4. Musk opposed the measure due to the concerns he would increase the deficit and increase the debt ceiling.

But Trump said that he is not concerned about the challenges of Musk’s new “America Party”.

“I think it will help us. It will probably help. Third parties have always been good for me,” said Trump at the meeting of the cabinet.

Trump also shared the details of a recent call he had with Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying that he became frustrated by Putin while the war between Russia and Ukraine rages.

“We get a lot of bulls — We launched by Putin, if you want to know the truth,” said Trump. “It is very nice to us all the time, but it turns out that it does not make sense.”

Netanyahu meeting

Trump also met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday and Tuesday – marking the third time that Netanyahu went to Washington during Trump’s second term. The visit comes as Trump seeks to get a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.

Trump reported that one could be on the horizon soon.

“I’m going to tell you that we are getting closer to an agreement,” Trump told journalists on Wednesday. “I don’t know if it’s secret or not secret, but does not matter for me-secrets good if it brings us where we want to be, we want to have a cease-fire.”

“We want to have peace,” he said. “We want to recover the hostages. And I think we are about to do so.”
