Mayor Bill de Blasio is headed to New Hampshire on Saturday to continue his public flirtation with a 2020 bid for the White House, according to WMUR radio in Manchester.

The trip comes a week after he flapped his arms to the R. Kelly song “I Believe I Can Fly” during a visit to a South Carolina church.

The mayor claimed Monday, “I just didn’t know it was his song,” when asked why he was dancing to a song by someone facing child sex charges.

Kelly was indicted in Chicago last month for alleged sexual abuse of three minor girls and one adult woman between 1998 and 2010.

De Blasio visited Iowa, another early primary state, last month.

A Des Moines Register poll showed New York City’s mayor had zero chance of being the first or second presidential pick of Iowa voters.

The mayor’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
