More likely it would be a right turn departing runway 25R.

Runway 7L/25R (the Airnav sheet has it as 8L/26R) is the longest runway at
McCarran. Traffic departing 25R should normally go straight ahead or turn right.

You could get that angle of view standing near the Las Vegas Village concert
venue's Gate #5 on Giles St and have a pretty good chance that Air Force One
would be departing in that direction.

Photoshopped or not, I don't get the point other than it's Air Force One and
the hotel. Is it meant to imply that Trump dropped this guy off and told him to
kill 58 country music fans, most of whom I would guess are Trump voters?
The article it's from was about Trump visiting Las Vegas. It's a photo that
captures both Trump and the reason he was in Las Vegas.

The plane could not be at that altitude and going -up- in that direction given
where the hotel is and the airport is.. may be more wrong than that.. but it
is surely a photoshop paste job.
I'm not so sure of that. I took a look on the map
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Mandalay+Bay/@36.0869256,-115.1810502,14.63z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x80c8c5cffb824261:0x97f68a25c5b4ddef!8m2!3d36.0918777!4d-115.175245
and taking off from 1R or 1L could have the plane in that configuration
compared to the hotel. A sufficiently long lens could give the compression of
perspective that would make the plane seem a lot closer than that.
