One hundred pink penis-shaped balloons with the faces of Donald Trump’s opponents, including Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and special counsel Jack Smith, floated Thursday near the venue for the former president’s hush money trial.
Staten Island political activist Scott Lobaido released the illicit floating “art installation” — which also presented the mugs of Manhattan Judges Juan Merchan and Arthur Engoron — titled “D—-s of Hazard” to show that “these guys are a bunch of useless d—-s,” the artist told the New York Post.
“As a New Yorker, this is how we talk,” he said.
According to Mr. Lobaido, the $1,500 production took two days to stick on the legal faces and apply weights so the balloons wouldn’t drift off right away.
Mr. Lobaido said the four men are trying to “destroy” Mr. Trump and the Constitution.
Mr. Merchan is presiding over the criminal trial that Mr. Bragg brought against Mr. Trump.
Mr. Engoron oversaw Mr. Trump’s New York civil fraud trial and issued a fine of $455 million.
Mr. Smith charged Mr. Trump with numerous indictments in two federal cases related to election interference and the mishandling of classified documents.
