To the air, my man.
Earlier this morning, the Trump blimp embarked on its maiden flight above Parliament. Despite the likes of Nigel Farage doing their best to kick up a stink, free speech won out.
Via CNN:
The orange-hued blimp was inflated in Parliament Square at about 9.30 a.m. as a crowd of onlookers cheered. As the air filled the six-meter (20-feet) ballon, it rose slowly into the air.
It will fly at a height of about 30 meters (98 feet) for two hours.
Here’s the moment the Man Baby Blimp took off:

UPDATE: THE BLIMP HAS NOW COME DOWN, BUT HERE’S A RECORDING OF THE FLIGHT:
His tragically fragile ego may never recover.
