In his new, singleminded quest to find a sports venue where he won’t be roundly booed (I swear this will eventually end up at an illegal cockfight or Tijuana donkey show), Trump is heading to an SEC football game this weekend — specifically the Alabama-LSU tilt in Tuscaloosa tomorrow.
A stadium full of good ol’ boy football fans seems like it would be just the thing to soothe Trump’s gravely wounded ego (hey, maybe he’ll luck out), but either way, Trump is in for at least a little chastening.
The famous Baby Trump balloon will be there to greet him.
The Hill:
Organizers raised more than $4,000 in about 12 hours on a GoFundMe page to bring the “VIP (very important protestor)” to an area near Bryant-Denny Stadium on the Alabama campus, which is hosting the game that President Trump is expected to attend.
Nic Gulas, who organized the effort, told The Hill the fundraiser had already brought in $700 more than the needed funds to transport and set up the “Baby Trump” balloon.
...
"When the first reports started to come out Monday that he was coming, I half joking, half seriously tweeted that I wanted a track on one of the balloons," Gulas said.
"One thing led to another from a few other people's help and we were able to get in touch with them. It was something that a lot of people got behind, so we put it into motion and got a great response from a lot of people," he added.
The game is at 2:30 p.m., just in case you’re curious and want to tune in. Not sure when Baby Trump is scheduled to arrive, but I assume the balloon will be there early.
Does Trump make you want to delete your brain? Of course he does! But don’t do it until you’ve read Dear F*cking Lunatic: 101 Obscenely Rude Letters to Donald Trump and its breathlessly awaited sequel Dear F*cking Moron: 101 More Letters to Donald Trump by Aldous J. Pennyfarthing. Reviewers have called these books “hysterically funny,” “cathartic,” and “laugh-out-loud” diversions from our temporary hell on Earth. Don’t delay. Click those links, yo!
