The precedent this sets is honestly outstanding. Any president can do literally any thing now. Executive branch is now quite literally a dictatorship because the president can legally do anything he wants and just say it's an "official act." Anyone who says the US is a democracy is wrong and this is some of the most definitive proof yet.
