See What Happens When A Plane Violates Presidential Airspace | TODAY
Each time President Trump spends a weekend away from the White House, there’s a massive military effort to protect him from threats… including from above. TODAY national investigative correspondent Jeff Rossen was given rare access to present a dramatic demonstration of how the Air National Guard keeps presidential airspace safe.

In the 8 YEARS of Obama in the White House I can find only THIRTEEN News Articles with this much Interest, in what it was costing to Protect the President of the USA.. But now just 7 MONTHS into President Trump's Term in Office I found in just 10 minutes 108 NEWS Articles on the Cost to the People to Protect the President of the USA.. COME ONE PEOPLE this Anti-Trump crap is getting REALLY STUPID NOW!
The entire premise of the video was a "reporter" (liberal liar) acting. The flight was FULLY planned. I would bet the CAP and AF-Res were even in the same planning meetings.
Pretending there was "no radio contact" is a fallacy, even if there was none - everything was a "known". I would also bet that the CAP guys were former intercept guys (putting them even more in the know). I would also bet that had the AF known that this was going to turn into an ignorant, and idiotic report by the liberal media..they would have never allowed this clown in the crop duster.
But, what would I know (other than the whole thing was acted out about as well as a high-school play by the idiot in the back seat)

You missed the whole point. It was a premise and the C.A.P. and reserves were in the same meeting. That is called TRAINING. Liberal or not, the media does occasionally report on things that John Q. Public is interested in. Don't filter everything out. If you do, THAT becomes the problem.
If this was a NEWS story, awesome. However, it was an Op/Ed for the most part...it would have been much better had it had the voices of a cold war announcer calling the play by play.
What is funny (and real) - I sent a link to a gentleman who practices with my group. His only comment was "No Comment other than stupid". He would be "in the know. All of you have seen him. He was in a small movie called "Top Gun" and not an "Actor". I know civil aviation, he knows military aviation. We both agree, the video was "stupid" (due to the commentary).

I wonder if any consideration is given to "collateral damage" if they end up shooting the rogue craft out of the sky...the population on the ground.
Thanks for spending our taxpayer money Jeff, those F-16s don't run on water, what an idiot to risk the pilots license and others for an unneeded intercept. It's not a game, it's serious, and TFRs are not just for the President. You really could not find another' story to do? But then again it was most likely planned and not unannounced.
