Just curious, does the presidential TFR shut down the airport the whole time he is at the ranch, or just when he's coming and going from the airfield?

The whole airport is shut down when he arrives and departs, apparently security gets extremely tight around there, as one would think. You can't even walk out onto the ramp even though he is on the other side of the airport. With regards to flying while he's at the ranch, yes you can. I asked the same thing about the flying part and it came across sort of vague, but from what I understand, you have to be on a flight plan, maybe even a flight following. I believe you also must fly away from and not in the direction of his ranch, unless you're returning to the airport. No student solo's are permitted, and no pattern work is allowed while he's there as well. So yes you can fly while he's at his ranch, but you must follow the set restrictions. Not sure if it's all exactly right, but it's what I understood.

Sounds like a real pain in the ass
