Were they trying to bring down Trump Tower? I don't know… kind of getting that feeling.
Just feels like it in terms of the goal. Set a blaze at a higher floor in a building with no sprinklers, watch it come down and then blame him for not having sprinklers.
Another thing to consider. If the building was cleared and cameras shut down a hostile actor could very easily setup a bomb or device in short time to be later used.
I don't like it, it stinks all around.
