Scene of the crime. |
11/9/19: The president travels to Alabama to watch the Crimson Tide take on the LSU Tigers. Trump is happy because the crowd mostly cheers. One of his biggest fans, but not a big fan of the First Amendment right to protest, Hoyt Hutchinson, 32, stabs the Trump Baby Blimp, which is floating peacefully in a park not far from the stadium.
(This is the second time the blimp was stabbed by freedom-loving
Trump fans, although the last time it happened the fan also sliced her hand.)
ABC News tells the tale. “The slashing appears to have been premeditated as Hutchinson posted a Facebook Live video just hours before the incident saying he was ‘going down to make a scene ... I’m shaking I’m so mad right now,’ he said. ‘I’m fixin’ to pop this balloon, without a doubt.’”
In a follow-up video, during the second half, Hutchinson (already out on bail) explained, “Some liberals tried to come to my hometown and start some trouble. That ain’t happening,” he says, while wearing a Trump 2020 shirt. “I did get arrested. I got charged. That’s all right. I’d do it again given the opportunity.”
He soon starts a GoFundMe page and quickly collects $20,000
to pay for his legal expenses; but the funds are denied, since the GoFundMe
website bans profiting from criminal acts.
