The activist group CODEPINK said Tuesday it has been granted a permit to fly the"Baby Trump" balloon on the National Mall on July Fourth, in a location where a National Park Service official said it might be seen by President Donald Trump.
In a press release, the organization said, “regarding the location, we had requested a space on the large, empty expanse at the base of the Washington Monument that would not have obstructed anyone’s view but would have allowed the president to see the baby. Instead we were only given location options that were outside the line of sight. We chose the northwest quadrant just off 17th Street but feel there was no reason to deny us our right to protest the president where he could see us.
CODEPINK said it will hold a will be holding a press conference Wednesday in front of the Lincoln Memorial to protest, “the militarization of July 4 and talk about our plans to fly"Baby Trump" with helium and hold a “Trump is a Big Baby” Festival.”
GOD help us all. THIS IS WHERE America is today.
Lol Mr. President is a big babyw
They were not allowed to fly it..they have no permit..forced cold air..National Airspace...hello!
Sounds like bs to me. The real Trump is filled with hot air and will be allowed there.
Do it anyway..,what will they do? Do nothing about trump
Imagine a baby Obama balloon..........it would have been full of hot air but too worthless to get off the ground....
Why not put a noose around the neck and hang it from a 40’ pole. Just a thought
Just imagine if this was Obama .... bam double standards . Lmao sad just think if it was a black balloon ppl would be out raged .. white orange gerber baby and the other side is man enough to understand freedom of the country they hate lol
Oh my god these people are the coolest protesters I’ve ever seen.
That’s a disgrace. This parade is about American pride not President Trump. And doing this protest during an American celebration is disgraceful
And remember if it can't go the actual representative of it will be. DJT.
Just get it next to Trump. Maybe the hot air around him will cause it to soar. Surely this is a way to legally work around that. Put your thinking hats on. Which Trump doesn't own by the way.
That's quite a contrast from the realDonaldTrump that is filled with hot air!
Lol ' no Air'
Wish I could be there to see it.
Karma getting the protesters good 😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's OK - take that BABY for a stroll. I'd enjoying spanking it, myself. Need a hand? realDonaldTrump bloviates
Maduraras
Stop the disrespect your dishing out
Sounds about right
How stupid July 4th is when we celebrate our country and our vetrans and if u are not happy then leave the USA.
FREEDOM OF SPEECH, WHICH IS ROCK IN OUR GREAT COUNTRY.🇺🇸
Maybe tRump will supply enough hot air to float the balloon above ground.
Am glad it will at least be there - a John McCain shirt on it would be fantastic.
I’m so glad Baby T will be on the National Mall!!!! Seems only fitting given July 4th is a celebration of our independence from a King. 👏👏😉
Much like the bag of air himself, needing to be inflated.
Still...😂😂👏👏🎉🎉💕💕
Idiots
Attack drones need to take it down
I think the 'Baby Trump' balloon is cute. Just a reminder our wonderful Pres. Trump was a little one too that grew up to do amazing things.
If this were an Obama blimp, it would never be allowed up. So Incredibly unjust.
Start a 'Go fund me'. Hire a crane. Easy.
How about one without a diaper for teeny more effect!
Poor snowflake. Lol TDS in full effect
I don’t understand how this is ok but if was any other president it would be disrespectful. You voted him in just like Obama. Guess I don’t understand how the USA works.
Stupid idea
So disgusting and disrespectful. I hope someone pops it!
Sounds like the Trumpkins can’t stop the balloon, but they can keep it out of sight and on the ground. This no helium thing is BS.
Fill it up with helium tell judge our president does not follow the law as long he is there our balloon is high up in the air
Big deal been there seen that!!
So dumb.
Someone needs to take it down
🤣I’d LOVE to see that...
Eres lo mas grande Donald Trump 👍👍👍👍
Well, that just makes it more like trump
I’m sure MSM will have every camera there.
How funny, a bit like the left’s policies.
😃
People should be arrested after all some of it is in fact threatening!!!
It should be illegal since it is in fact the President of our United States they are making fun of!!! When did it become ok to harrass the President!!! I thought there was a law against it!!
Trump is a monster as well.
Maybe they can use drones attached to it lol
Perfect height to block seeing Trump on stage.
People are over the flying babies and Trump dolls. Leftists prove how moronic they are daily. More of the same
Just wrong !!! If we did that with Obama everyone would have a fit
So disrespectful. Grow up and move on.
I wish someone would puncture that balloon embarrassing
That's OK. Baby Trump can have a front row seat.
Needs to be full of hot air lol. Guess helium can be blown up
TubbsShow Wrist rocket to the rescue! 😁
What an absolutely ridiculous statement. Could your funds be better spent? NO! That would require brainwaves..
Tony_Balogney
👏🇺🇸
😆
Fill the baby trump balloon with trump's hot air!
Doesn't seem far, I mean the real Trump floats around full of hot air.
Hahahaha.
Y'all being dubble minded talking of how to end the racist stuff going on in America but yet being racist flying a Trump Doll talking smack !! looks to me like the Government are the teachers of Hate !! Man what a clown show it has become
So the evil devil worshiping left has got a permit to fly their balloon, but I bet if I wanted to have a balloon made making fun of your God, King Obama, I wouldn't get a permit to fly it. Liberal hypocrisy knows NO bounds.
WHY DOES THE FUCKING PARK SERVICE GET TO DECIDE THIS?
Trump derangement syndrome expressed by lunatics on the left & cheered on by our disgraceful so-called news media is a despicable disgusting & vile display of childish behavior. One could imagine if the right did this 2 Obama when he was prez. Media would be having a meltdown !
CAsunshinegal You activists are a joke
Why does everything have to be partisan? It is America's birthday. President Trump is the leader of our country not a blow up balloon. What might have happened if a blow up balloon of President Obama had been launched when he was President? So disrespectful and boring.
one dart is all a person nearby needs.. enjoy
What is the point of this? This bothers the president about as much as a housefly and it’s so disrespectful to the American people. You don’t like him, duly noted.
😂😂😂😂😂
WONDERFUL
Smart... Someone will shoot it with a bottle rocket and it will land on all the liberals LOL
Rules are for everyone else! They’ll fill it with helium anyway, and no one will challenge them!
Simply have AOC blow some of her hot air into it.....it'll be airborne in a heartbeat !
Fly baby, fly!!
Trump can’t get higher than two feet either, so it will be more lifelike.
There's only room for one Trump filled with hot air on the mall at the same time and it appears Donald J. Trump drew the long straw.
A few DARTS , it will be deflated on the ground 👍🎯
Why no helium
Be sure to take your sling shots!!!
But we all know he is full of hot air!
I can't wait for someone to pop it!!!!
Well this seems apropos since Cadet Bone Spurs couldn't jump two feet off the ground if he was on a trampoline.
So sick of this. Hate, hate, hate is the new America.
It'd be a shame if a patriot accidentally pulls out an object sharp enough to puncture it to the point it wouldn't hold any air. Just a shameS
ROSE BUD will be with Baby Trump balloon on the 4th we don't need helium just wait and see.
I can only hope that there someone there with a big sharp pin.📌
About the height of his intelligence!!!
Is that so the actual baby Trump won't see it & throw a tantrum?👶🙈😆
Screw them!!!
Abc sucks
They can add some helium to it—c’mon!!!
There is more than enough hot air in Washington to fill Baby Donald!
Excellent. The balloon is the real realDonaldTrump not the person who thinks he is a president. This Military spectacle on the 4th of July is nothing more than public masturbation by realDonaldTrump the money could have gone to help our Vets & given the Military the day off
That's okay Trump can't get it up either.
When you can’t beat him, offend him. Taken from the progressive, liberal playbook. 😂
So sad on the 4th of July this should just be wonderful day to celebrate with your children friends and family why in the world would this get approved
This is the news. Not that our President is planning a celebration of our nations birth. Instead we want to point out the negative of the event. It’s that birth that gives them the right to fly their balloon.
He looks great: Trump2020 bitches.
Why do this to children and people who pay good money for a vacation? People are such animals.
This is pure hatred and why I will never support these activist trying to turn this great celebration into a joke. I love our country..
works for me
Use 5 pre-programmed drones. They'll carry cheeto.
....................u guys ,,,,,,hahahahahahahaha
Military tanks in the streets of our capital, his family meeting with foreign officials on policy matters, shaking hands w/ a dictator on their own soil while American tax payers are paying for all of this & he refuses to say the cost. Is he a president or dictator?
Boo Park Services!
So stupid .... 🙄
That’s despicable. The liberals would be crying if they did something like that when Obama was President.
Oh good so it will do as well as Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign. 🤪
Hahaha!!! ain't that a kick in their trump hating balls!!
🙄🤦🏾♀️
Please remember these Soccer Players are Immature Brats and haven't had any Consequences in Life Please Forgive them!
It'll look exactly like a toddler throwing a tantrum = perfect!!! 😂😂😂 ToddlerTrump SaveOurCountry kazweida yashar
It's gonna be miles away and on the ground. Wow!!! That's impressive!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!
Yes!
Two Feet more than Trump
They’ll find a way.
I wish I could be there.😂
Lol I really want to see this thing.
Yes he’s fat let em go way up
Ho hum
Some good American will pop it
About the same height as president Trump!
Throw that thing up like a beach ball at a concert. We will make sure that thing gets bounced right into Trumps lap
Love it 😍
That’s still higher than realDonaldTrump ‘s approval rating.
That balloon won’t last two hours in air?
Somebody’s going to pop it
I know have a parade because the money used for it couldn’t possibly be put to better use
So, now the Park service is in charge of air.....oh brother.....
Liberals really think this nonsense is effective. Can't wait to see them crying again on election night.
It will never get off the ground.
Stick a stick up its ass and hoist it up. Problem solved.
They should realize they’re only making their foe that much more popular with each insult. It’s called shooting one’s self in the foot. Acceptance and unity. Not division.
The same Park Service that is losing 2.5 million for Trump’s idiotic event.
That will be a great addition to the celebration. Everybody loves the Dotard baby. Is there a Kelly Conway baby?
I know some 7 foot NBA players who would volunteer to get it at least 9 feet off the ground.
They need to use a bunch of small drones to lift him up.
Well, realDonaldTrump is overinflated with hot air and still never gets more than two feet off the ground so it’s all good.
People are idle.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
Wear aMcCain t-shirt! A great way to remember a hero on the 4th. And it will annoy the he'll out of you know who.
That will make him happy
Tf is that NatlParkService ? Do you understand physics at all?
Pellet Gun
Liberals taking the high road
realDonaldTrump if baby Trump's arms don't flail in a tantrum I shall be very disappointed. I expect this to be the next level of the macysparade . Won't be the first time we have used inflateable tanks
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful.
A baby for the crybabies to hold. How ironic
GO TRUMP GO
Well, one upshot will be that it'll float low enough for EVERYONE to slap Trumps ass.
I hope a bunch of patriots show up and pop it. Disgraceful! Trump2020LandslideVictory
Isn’t that special. Just bring a BB gun.
Awesome
Hot? Cold? WTF is the difference!! p91fun
DON'T MOCK, DON'T RANT, SHOWS IMPOTENCE AND WEAKNESS: RESEARCH:
You are only helping him draw attention
Shows you just how small minded the liberals are. They need a Baby Trump to prop up their deflated ego. They’ll say nothing when antifa attacks journalists, but if someone shoots down the balloon, they’ll cry murder.
A patriot will burst it. 😁
Who in their right mind would give a permit for a balloon depicting the current President of our country in such a way 😡.....OUR COUNTRY IIS IN DEEP TROUBLE...CANT SEE MAKING ANOTHER 100 years then Canada will be building a Wall !
If its filled with cold air it shouldnt get off the ground at all.
All the Democrats can do is offer a balloon. Now I know I made the right choice in backing Trump.
😂😂😂
That'll show em!
Ahhhh put the helium in baby Trump. Give us something to enjoy on the 4th
That’s ok. Serves the same purpose.
Nobody will miss it. Of course, the news media will make sure it is seen on tv. What a shame.
Someone needs to design a John Mcain tee shirt for that thing😂
Maybe put huge fans underneath it to buoy it up and make it jump up and down like the screaming toddler he is?
What a fine representation
Hopefully someone pops the balloon. Think it’s so disrespectful.
What was it that Congresswoman Wilson said about making fun of government officials? Interesting thought exercise, just a few hours later.
Sophomoric Tacky Ignorant
But crazy hat lady said making fun .... never mind.
They can’t even fill their dumb balloon correctly. Enjoy it babies.
CRCTNY Who cares ? Not us patriots! Waste all your money. Who cares?🤮🤮🤮🤪🤪🤪
And these idiots call Trump a baby! They don’t even see the irony!
Satire is the best form of flattery.
Park Service for the win.
What’s that saying...necessity is the mother of invention...let’s get that symbol of our national embarrassment flying high!!!!
Idiots !
Yeah! Just like the democrats platform. Cant get off the ground. Losers
TubbsShow Trump2020lanslide
Best part is they help Trump, advertise Trump yet they don’t even understand.
Woo hoo !! Fly baby Fly !! That’s so awesome! Just what I wanted ! thankyouLondon babytrumpblimp hehe
