   I'm not saying this was a definitive set up for an assassination   
   attempt. I am saying that it's location, line of site, distance, not   
   being a hunting ground, recent attempts on Trump's life, etc. all   
   warrant a serious look and should not be dismissed as lightly as you are   
   doing.

   It has been there for a couple of months, apparently. It's up in a tree   
   with a direct sight line to the tarmac. Coincidence? Maybe. Maybe not.   
   Let's see what the investigation uncovers.

   Where are you getting this 1000m+ idea from? Estimates indicate the   
   stand was approximately 200 yards (about 183 meters or 600 feet) from   
   the Air Force One exit stairs and tarmac zone. That's a gimme putt for   
   even a half decent shooter.
