Warzone/The Drive: Air Force One Just Had A Near Miss With A Drone According To Reporter Onboard (Updated)
The C-32A was descending into Andrews Air Force Base when the incident supposedly took place.
Reports are emerging describing a potential near miss with an unmanned aircraft system (UAS) while the C-32A that President Trump was flying on was making its final approach into Andrews Air Force base on Sunday evening. POTUS was returning from Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster New Jersey when the reported near miss took place.
AFP's Sebastian Smith reported on the incident shortly after disembarking the highly modified 757-200, stating:
"@realDonaldTrump just landed at Andrews on AF1. Shortly before, while descending, we flew right over a small object, remarkably close to the president’s plane. Resembled a drone though I’m no expert."

Unbelievable a drone could come anywhere near Air Force 1 and the President. How did this happen? This is a window wide-open for an attempted assassination of the President.
First a shot at an HMX-1 helo. Now a drone flown at Air Force One.
The FBI needs to make itself useful and stop this.
