Look, I understand that the Baby Trump balloon is a funny joke—he's a man but he's also a big crying baby, get it? GET IT???—but I personally would love to sneak just one minute of blissful oblivion away from the ever-present specter of our belligerent president. That minute will not come on October 27 October 28 [UPDATE: With a spooky nor'easter threatening high winds on Saturday, By the People has decided to move the parade to Sunday—full update below], however. That's the day of By the People's Impeachment Parade, featuring everyone's favorite buoyant behemoth, Baby Trump.

You have doubtless seen photos of Baby Trump, even if you have not yet enjoyed the opportunity to feast your eyes upon its toothy maw, its cartoonishly rendered double chin, its tangle of highlighter yellow chest hairs, its pouchy manbaby pecs, its teeny hands made to look even tinier by the addition of a smartphone. Loosely resembling a diapered, dirigible orange, Baby Trump has floated fussily over a number of different protests around the world. It stands 20 feet tall, which—according to the Washington Post—is not very tall as balloons go, but it is big enough to have caught the president's eye. It greeted him during his first official visit to London in July, and made him feel "unwelcome." *clears throat* : SAD!

In other words, it served its intended purpose: "It's worked spectacularly well. We've basically run him out of London," the blimp's creator, Leo Murray, told the Post. "He's got the message."

Since then, Baby Trump has undertaken a world tour, shadowing 45 on many of his diplomatic visits. Please note that there currently exist multiple iterations of Baby Trump—balloons do have a pesky habit of popping, and just think of the shipping costs—which have graced Florida; New Jersey (where the two organizers who decided to crowdfund six copies for a U.S. tour, Jim Girvan and Didier Jimenez-Castro, live); Chicago; but never to Trump's hometown. October 27th will mark the first time in Baby Trump's short life that it has stalked the skies over New York City.

By the People, a grassroots organization gunning for Trump's impeachment, told Gothamist that a friend connected the group with Girvan, the organizer of the People's Motorcade, which sponsors the Baby Trump Tour. They "thought it would be fun to work together" on the parade.

"We are holding this parade to kick off mass mobilization to impeach Trump and remove his Administration from power," said Alexandra Flores-Quilty, Coordinator for By the People, in a statement. "We need to send a message to Trump, and whoever comes after him, that we won't accept a President that stokes racist violence, engages in corruption, and undermines our democracy. Impeachment does that, and it cannot come soon enough." So does the Baby Trump ballon because, as mentioned, it has captured his attention and his ire.
