Another unflattering blimp portraying President Trump as an orange, diaper-clad baby will be flying over New Jersey in about a month, activists say.

The anti-Trump activists raised more than $6,000 to bring one of the 20-foot-high balloons depicting a furious, cellphone-toting commander-in-chief to the Garden State from London, where one was flown Friday in a massive protest during the president’s UK visit.

The group is hoping to send its blimp soaring over the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster.

“The balloon is a tool to enable us to go after the president in a humor kind of way,” Hillsborough-based activist Didier Jimenez-Castro told NJ Advance Media.

Jimenez-Castro, along with the local political-activist group the People’s Motorcade, set up a GoFundMe on Friday to commission one of the blimps from activist Leo Murray, who masterminded the UK balloon. The People’s Motorcade has protested outside Trump’s New Jersey golf course in the past.

By Monday, the group had raised $6,794 — well over their goal of $4,500.

“The baby Trump is not just a piece of humor, but it is also a symbol of the administration. It’s symbolic of the children that are in cages, it’s a symbol of racism, and we know that he hates to be ridiculed,” Jimenez-Castro said of Trump.

The balloon is also an attempt to make Trump feel unwelcome at his golf club, he said.

“During an interview, he mentioned he does not feel welcome with the Baby Trump in display, and we need to get under his skin as much as we can,” reads the fundraising page, referring to Trump’s interview with The Sun where he groused about feeling unwelcome in London.

The blimp should be delivered in about four weeks, according to the “Baby Trump Tour” Twitter account.
