They broke in during the fire.
Distraction.
Q
This is the SECOND fire at Trump tower. The first was on a Cooling Unit on the roof. LOTS of smoke in an air handling unit is going to create LOTS of smoke smell outside.

Not much inside due to flow direction. Was this a first attempt at a break in or just a response test to test security in what is likely a very secure building?
There are no coincidences, correct?
Other than a construction fire while building, there is no historical data of fire issues at Trump Tower.
From the NYT article on the Trump Fire 2
https:// www.nytimes.com/2018/04/07/nyregion/trump-tower-fire.html
Dennis Shields, a resident who said he lived on the 42nd floor, described the scene.
“You could smell the smoke and you could hear things falling like through the vents,” he said. “It just smelled like sulfur.”
He said there were no orders to evacuate but he received a text message from Mr. Trump’s lawyer, Michael D. Cohen.
Been bugging me in the read carefully. The “Cohen” thing is obvious. The smell of sulfur for me wasn’t, nor was this the first fire recently. They are claiming an electrical fire as a cause. No explosions per a gas leak, which is usually the cause listed as a sulfur smell. A strong sulfur smell in the building would have been an immediate larger evacuation of the entire premises.
As an example:

The general rule on smelling sulfur in a contained space is to get out, and clear the area.
Apartments have natural gas, as seen in the listings.

Trump Tower is a high rise, so heat and cooling are done on a building basis.
This is reflected in the Lease Document. The US Military is renting Trump Tower Space, and the document is public, though redacted.

Burning the Midnight Oil is the phrase used by Q.
It is an old phrase with biblical origins. While lots of oil has been used in Oil lamps over time, Kerosene is common. Crappy grades of kerosene (K2) are not used because they give off a strong sulfur smell.
