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.

Send up a couple of drones to cut the ropes holding the balloon, and watch it float away to outer space.

We are morons. We should have created this blimp and fleeced the Left for fat stacks of cash.

A hillary balloon wouldn’t work. It couldn’t get off the ground because it would be coughing out the helium and it would fall at random times.

It would be a shame if someone were to check whether it flies above the effective range of a pellet gun.

Make a blimp of the stinking pedophile subhuman troglodyte, Mo-HAM-head, and see who gets ‘offended’ and ‘objectionable’, Khan, you lowlife dirtbag POS.

“I’ve heard that air craft are not allowed near the POTUS.
Restricted air space for a presidential visit is common.”

I have a free weather app called MyRadar (free) that has multiple layers that can be toggled on - one is an aviation layer and the do not fly zones are quite interesting and there is always one wherever the POTUS is and is going.

Is it true a known pedophile paid for the balloon?

Sure would be a howl if some Trump supporters shot holes in it! Just think of the pink panty crowd meltdown.
