      Probably so they have a clear view of the sky without shooting through a palm tree.

      I used to live in the area (actually right across the water from Mar-A-Lago in the El Cid neighborhood) and there really isn’t. Not in any place that might actually be workable for defense.

        I guess they know what they’re doing. Every golf course I’ve ever been on has landscaping to set up secluded holes and to put tractor sheds and pump houses out of immediate sight. I guess that’s what I expected

        Common misconception. There’s not actually a golf course at Mar a lago. It’s literally just a big gaudy mansion, some tennis courts, some landscaping. Also notable it’s only about a mile down the road from where Jeffrey Epstein used to live.

      I always think of C&C Zero Hour Avengers units when I see these. Brings back loads of memories pwnin the noobs on Twilight Flame.
