This is an alternative way I did on C#. Maybe you can use the same technique and apply it on python.

public static string GetRequest(string url, bool isBinary = false) {
    // binary is the file that will be downloaded
    // Here you perform asynchronous get request and download the binary
    // Python guide for GetRequest -> http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/user/quickstart/
}

browser.webdriver.Firefox();
browser.get(any_url);
elem = browser.findElement("locator");
GetRequest(elem.getAttribute('href'), true); // when this method is done, you expect the get request is done
browser.quit();
