MINNEAPOLIS — Ahead of the real Donald Trump's visit to Minneapolis, "Baby Trump" has arrived in the City of Lakes. Political opponents of the president inflated the giant balloon on the roof of the historic "First Avenue" music venue, located across the street from the Target Center, where Trump and his supporters will rally tonight.

Heavy turnout for protests during the rally is expected. With so many people in the area, Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo sent out a warning earlier this week saying those engaging in illegal activity at and around the rally will be arrested and prosecuted.
