Nigel Farage has claimed anti-Trump protestors’ plans to fly a blimp portraying Donald Trump as a big baby is the ‘biggest insult to a sitting US president ever’.
Mr Farage aimed his criticism at London Mayor Sadiq Khan, who granted permission for the 20ft inflatable to fly above Parliament Square Gardens on July 13.
The former UKIP leader weighed in on the debate on Thursday, saying allowing the blimp to fly during Trump’s visit was ‘a step too far’ and ‘ridiculous’.
However, some Twitter users disagreed with Mr Farage, with one remarking: ‘JFK getting shot in the head is probably more insulting than a flying a balloon.’
Another added: ‘Obama endured an endless bombardment of racist caricatures for eight years.’
One said: ‘Think there have been bigger insults to sitting presidents….from peanuts to bullets.’
Four US Presidents have been assassinated while they were in office, including Abraham Lincoln in 1865, James A. Garfield in 1881, William McKinley in 1901 and John F. Kennedy in 1963.
Ronald Reagan was shot in an assassination attempt in 1981 but survived.
