In a rare move, Dujarric, the U.N. secretary-general spokesperson, sent a note to reporters on Tuesday to clarify what had happened. He said the most likely explanation is that a videographer from the U.S. delegation accidentally brought the escalator to a halt. The videographer had been many steps ahead of the first couple on the escalator, standing backward to film their arrival. Apparently, when the videographer reached the top, he inadvertently triggered a safety feature designed to keep people or objects from getting caught in the gearing, Dujarric said. "A subsequent investigation, including a readout of the machine's central processing unit, indicated that the escalator had stopped after a built-in safety mechanism on the comb step was triggered at the top of the escalator," he wrote.
The British newspaper Daily Mirror called Trump "DERANGED" in big bold letters on the front page. They also called him "The World's Most Powerful Man-Baby." Trump is a joke; so is anyone who still supports him.

(2) A UN official later told the BBC the White House was operating the teleprompter at the time, bringing their own laptops and plugging them into the UN's system. (3) a UN official said: ''The sound system was designed to allow people at their seats to hear speeches being translated into six different languages through earpieces."

You don't have to watch Kimmel's entire monologue but take a look around 2:30 - 3:50 and see how Faux News pushes the narrative to create sympathy for Trump. Also keep in mind that "a September 2025 report by Medium cited a median age of 68 for Fox News viewers in 2023." - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpbldvKr2uc
