Republicans Melt Down Over Escalator Incident [View all]
After spending the past week demanding the firing, arrest and prosecution of every Democrat who failed to sufficiently mourn right-wing podcaster Charlie Kirk, MAGA blood is up again calling for officials at the UN to be imprisoned for an alleged escalator prank.
When Trump and his adoring wife Melania arrived at the UN to give the single most embarrassing speech ever made by an American president to the General Assembly, they stepped on to the escalator only to have it stop working. Melania gave Trump one of her famous looks of disgust as they stood there for several seconds. She finally just walked up the stairs and a few seconds later Trump lumbered up clearly annoyed.
As he began the speech, Trump complained that the teleprompter wasnt working properly to allow him to read Stephen Millers deranged speech: I dont mind making this speech without a teleprompter. Because the teleprompter is not working. I can only say that whoever is operating this teleprompter is in big trouble.

What really got things going was a subsequent post by press secretary Karoline Leavitt, who said this: If someone at the UN intentionally stopped the escalator as the President and First Lady were stepping on, they need to be fired and investigated immediately.
