Trump baby blimp set to follow president around US
SBS News ^ | July 17, 2018

The now-famous Trump baby blimp, which flew above protests across the UK as a defiant symbol against Donald Trump last week, could soon be on its way to the US.

A GoFundMe page to get the inflatable baby Trump – complete with bright orange skin and a nappy – stateside has raised more than $10,000 in just three days.

Activist Didier Jiminez-Castro set up the GoFundMe page to raise $4,500 to get the 20-foot blimp to Bedminster, New Jersey, where Mr Trump often golfs.

He said he was blown away by the support and was now planning for it to go on a nationwide tour.

The blimp floated over Britain’s parliament during the US president’s London visit, despite the objections of some conservatives.

London’s Mayor Sadiq Khan defended his decision to let demonstrators display it.

"The idea that we would park our rights and privileges and freedoms because it may cause offence to a US president, I think people in London and the UK would find objectionable as indeed would Americans,” he said.

I think we need some counter balloons at out huge rallies. My first suggestion is the “ mad max” balloon. This is a large balloon with a pasty looking wig and a giant gaping mouth depicting Maxine Waters. Or there it the hillary ballon that looks like the Hindenburg ,with her face painted on one end crying with horribly baggy eyes and flat undone hair and at the end of the of the event it just crashes and burns or the obozo balloon with giant ears. It’s endless really!!

I’m OK with them wasting their money on stuff like this. We should encourage them... keep them from putting money where it can count.

One can acquire airguns which are very quiet.

Handheld burning lasers are available as well. They’re even quieter.

It’s liable to catch fire, and fall down and burn their widdle heads. Public safety issue.

Oh, the humanity!

Why would any sane president trust our intel agencies after his experience with Comey, Rosenweasel, Strzok, Page, et al? They have revealed themselves as being untrustworthy by their attempted coup.

These idiots in England have no concept of just how armed and just how fed up we are with this horsesh!t. This blimp wouldn’t last 10 minutes in my neighborhood.

PDJT should buy the blimp ( 3rd party offer) and own that blimp. Didier probably would sell it to a high bidder.

It needs to be disassembled and inspected to be sure there’s no threat......

Imagine if someone had done a bammy blimp. There would have been mass hara kiri,and reparations to all blacks.

This is just a lot of hot air. They will get tired of it real soon.

This is a very bad idea.Obama mocked Trump and you see how that worked out for Obama.The balloon will insure many years of Trump then Pence. Bring It...It should be very entertaining.

You might want to suggest that to Kushner. He could make it the Corporate mascot before quickly retiring it.

And, if Didier refuses to sell, well, we’ll just let the courts decide if that cake should be baked, ne c’est pas?

Would one of the inbred royals please tell their moron subject to shut up already?
