After Approving ‘Trump Baby' Balloon, Muslim Mayor Gets Dose Of Own Medicine
[MadworldNews] After okaying a 20-foot-tall "Trump Baby" balloon to be flown over Parliament Square for the U.S. President’s arrival, London’s Muslim Mayor Sadiq Khan just received the perfect dose of his own medicine.

When Barack Obama was elected president, the left strangely lost their sense of humor in regards to satirizing the presidency. Eight years later, they’ve suddenly rediscovered the art of parody, relentlessly mocking President Donald Trump without end.

Unfortunately, the vitriol from the left has completely clouded what little rationality they had, causing them to spiral into desperation and insanity. Of course, their unhinged rage has produced little more than pitiful and cringe-worthy protests ‐ and it’s only making the case for Trump 2020.

Continued from Page 2



As one of President Donald Trump’s most vocal critics in the UK, London Mayor Sadiq Khan has not only called for his country’s greatest and most vital ally to be banned, he’s now sanctioning disrespectful and churlish demonstrations on a taxpayer-funded property. In preparation for Trump’s upcoming trip to the UK on July 12 and 13, Khan gave his approval for a 20-foot "Trump baby" balloon to fly over Parliament Square during the historical visit.

Khan lazily justified his approval of raising the inflatable caricature by arguing that he "supports the right to peaceful protest," according to The Sun. However, conservative counter-protesters are about to force Khan to practice what he preaches.

After London Mayor Sadiq Khan approved a "Trump baby" balloon mocking the U.S. President to fly over Parliament Square, Londoners are raising funds to fly a "Khan baby" balloon, featuring an unflattering caricature of the Muslim mayor in a diaper. The fundraiser on crowdfunder.com has raised over $22,000 for the balloon, which is just $4,000 away from their new goal.

Additionally, British politician Nigel Farage pointed out Khan’s hypocrisy, asking if he would’ve approved of a 20-foot "Obama baby" balloon during a visit from the former president, the Express reports.

A furious Mr Farage ripped into the London Mayor during his evening LBC radio show: "I think to have allowed this blimp, it’s a step too far.

"Would you have allowed this to happen if it was of Obama?"

Farage also exposed Khan’s virtue-signaling on the issue of Trump’s travel ban, reminding the mayor that he had no problem when Obama implemented the same restrictions.

Mr Farage continued: "Sadiq, you might not like Mr Trump, you might not like his style, you might find him very confrontational and you didn’t like the so-called Muslim ban. But Sadiq where were you when President Obama introduced a total ban on refugees coming from seven predominantly Muslim countries? I didn’t hear the howls of outrage, I didn’t see the protests in the streets of London back in 2016."

Warning, not to scale:


Angry Britons confirmed Farage’s reasoning, demanding that a "Khan baby" also flies over Parliament Square for the sake of "peaceful protest." Others reminded the Muslim mayor of his skyrocketing crime rate, which has risen in every area since his 2016 election.

"Then he must allow the Khan in a nappy to fly ‐ would be good if it has the number if [sic] murders, rapes, acid attacks, and moped attacks under overpaid vile man," one commenter said.

"They won’t allow Tommy Robinson to talk against Islam but SUDDENLY they can allow freedom of expression to try and humiliate President Trump who represents our country," another wrote. "Looks like ’free speech’ only goes ONE way."

"Nice to see khan has his priorities right. How pathetic can you get?" another commented. "NOW if he had argued for and got extra police on the streets, dealt with the gangs and moped thieves, maybe this country wouldn’t be a laughing stock."

"So whilst Mayor Khan is endorsing protest on the streets of London, murders/scooter robberies/offences against persons and property are out of control," another wrote. "I think this man needs to get his priorities right!"

British Tory MP Philip Davies also blasted Khan for his "childish" display, arguing that the Muslim mayor should be more concerned about his economic failure than mocking President Trump for exposing them.

Philip Davies said: "He seems to be more interested in sidling up to Labour groups like Momentum than delivering on the best for the British economy."

Of course, Trump won’t even catch a glimpse of the "Trump baby," despite the exhaustive efforts of the unhinged protestors. In fact, the closest he’s expected to come to Parliament Square, where the balloon will be flown, is 40 miles away at Chequers, the Prime Minister’s Buckinghamshire home.

Mayor Sadiq Khan is patronizingly trying to hide his biased progressive agenda under the guise of the very liberties he undermines, and Britons are sick of it. Khan doesn’t represent the will of all Londoners, many of whom support President Donald Trump and love America.

Hopefully, Londoners will make Khan practice what he preaches by flying their own "Khan baby" balloon over Parliament Square since he’s suddenly such a fan of "peaceful protests."

#2 I'm cheered by the fact they have no actual arguments and are just resorting to insults.

#3 I'm afraid there will be sharp implements at the state dinner. Could someone warn London police that unsafe implements may be used and have someone dull them immediately?

True, but until you know what's in it you may not want to. That thing is big enough to lift a bit of plutonium dust beyond the range of the street side radiation sensors or disperse several gallons of a sarin solution.
