A giant blimp depicting President Donald Trump as a baby that he said made him “feel unwelcome” when it greeted him in London in July has followed him to the G20 summit in Argentina.

“I never doubted for a moment that we would get him here,” she added.
Kontar is currently staying at Cooper’s house where there is a bed and warm clothes that were donated by community members. When asked about the future, he says that he is excited to acclimate to the Canadian lifestyle – although he also says that he would rather “use a horse” to travel rather than ever set foot in an airport again.
