It's a new restriction, covers a big volume of air ...

In the case of the 30-mile radius Presidential TFR surrounding the
President's movements all around the country, it covers an area of
over 3,000 square miles. That would be in excess of enough airspace
to form an 18,000' high, one mile wide corridor from coast to coast!
It seems a bit excessive to put it euphemistically.

The Crawford, Texas TFR only affects 14 airports*, but training
activities are not approved when he's in town. :-(
