Balloon Boy Family Makes Pro-Trump Video

Remember the idiot who went to jail for a hoax that transfixed the nation and cost law enforcement a couple million dollars a few years ago? He’s back. And of course, he’s pro-Trump. Watch below. From the Tampa Bay Times:

Say this for the Heenes, a cheery stage dad who with his wife and three sons have been promoting the “world’s youngest heavy metal band” for a couple of years now: They are persistent. The family, once at the center of the most notorious hoax in recent history, on Thursday uploaded an original song and video supporting the candidacy of Donald Trump.

The Heenes were stamped onto the national consciousness nearly seven years ago, when they lived in Colorado. Anyone within earshot of a television Oct. 15, 2009, remembers the footage of a lonely mylar weather balloon, shot from trailing helicopters at 7,000 feet. A nation watched in horror, fearing a 6-year-old boy was trapped inside.

Falcon Heene, it turned out, was actually hiding in the garage. His father Richard served jail time for the stunt, which he said was a misunderstanding and detractors said he had created in order to land a reality show.
