The Trial Balloon that Wouldn't Fly

For the last few weeks, there have been daily stories about the giant Trump as a baby blimp that protesters wanted to fly over London while the President was there.  Finally, London's mayor had to get involved to approve the blimp. Then today, the blimp was deployed.  It was just a large balloon.  It looked to be about 15 feet high.  And it didn't fly.  It wasn't even up to the standards of the balloons in New York's Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade.

So what was the point of the big buildup?  This was about as big an event as if there were a protest parade of twenty minivans across Ohio.  BORING!

How could they be this excited over something that relatively small.  Oh well.  Maybe the "blue wave" that the Democrats/media keep talking about will turn out to be someone spilling a bottle of blue Gator Ade.
