Trump hasn't had to walk up any stairs since the Air Force One incident where he Bidened it. He forbids it, and the ghost of that umbrella haunts all stairways
Bonnedad
They’re so angry because we were all betting he’d stroke out climbing one flight
Helixninja333
And it sounds like it was one of trump's own team members that caused it to stop, just to make a photo-op and political stunt. Imagine if he actually did have a heart attack climbing those stairs.
FatboyRich
They were “stuck” on the escalator
SomebodythatIusedtonope
Gee he’s such a crybaby!.. He call it REAL DISGRACE!! a TRIPLE SABOTAGE!! that we (UN) have to be ASHAMED OF OURSELF and 99% it was one of his team that triggered unintentionally the safe stop button. 🤌

Tbf, Trump is so unhealthy that putting him on a flight of stairs is attempted murder.

What a bunch of whiny babies. So something didn’t work right and you had to do a little extra effort. Who the fuck cares. Welcome to my life.

It’s very hard to walk up escalator stairs. You know those little ridges are hard to navigate
RadioFloyd
Someone said it was an assassination attempt. “He was a sitting duck.” Most people can walk up at about the same rate the escalators bring them up.
cxmpxsxd
Now this could just be a coincidence...
Poppypoppoppop
I saw the footage. Wasn't the one just on his right going up and working fine? He just had to switch to that one
5piffy
Wasn't it a white house photographer who tripped the button?
Same with the teleprompter
PassionAggressive
Someone at the UN said a trump staffer ran ahead of the group and hit the panic switch at the top to stop it, the button that’s there to save people in the process of being eaten by the escalator. Believe they said it’s possible the staffer did not know they had hit the button.

Healthiest ever? Damn they never heard of Teddy?

Maybe I’m just an old fart, but why didn’t they just move over to the one that was working?

better version....

I also laughed at his description of the events as if it was an assassination attempt meant to cause him to fall on his face and into the "sharp" stairs.
RadioFloyd
I saw one claim that, and say he was “a sitting duck”.
ausernamewhat
A shitting duck's ass
jamesbondq
Also "right in the middle", and clearly only thwarted by her (and him) being in "such great" physical shape.
Wikitoria
It was his own stupid staff member that preceded him up the escalator.
Incompetence is the new orange.
TheButtInButterfly
the article that said "trump and Melania got stuck on a broken escalator" made me laugh so fucking bad. like dude what do you mean stuck? why the fuck is this even news ? i'm surprised there's not people out there cheering that he walked up some stairs and saying biden would have died after 3 steps
InfocalypseRising
I mean these are the same people who got absolutely furious about some mustard, so
L4dead2
And Biden eating ice cream
cytherians
Any normal person would've shrugged it off and walked up.
But Donald Trump? He's so badly out of shape... I'll bet he was out of breath at the top and that made him even more mad... a reminder of his frailty. Of course that doesn't even compare to his ego which is like paper thin glass.

Okay for a second, I only saw the blue and orange, and thought it was a bunch of gokus cheering for trump.

Context?

As the late, great, Mitch Hedberg said: "Warning, escalator is temporarily stairs, sorry for the convenience!"
DanCodyComics
We apologize for the fact that you can still get up there
Madcaplaughs84
That is my favorite Hedberg quote
mikeatike
This used to be my favorite Mitch Hedberg quote.
It still is, but it used to, too.
GenStrike
There's a second escalator right beside this one which is working fine in the video clip.
ChillaAquila
Trump hadn't even stepped foor on it either, they could've just used the one next to it. I reckon Melania accidentally hit the emergency stop.
TacoPoweredHelicopter
It was his videographer at the top of the escalator.
Riouxen
The same videographer that coincidentally got the entire thing on camera.
duktayp
Mitch hedberg predicted this maybe 30 years ago

I would literally sell someone's kidney to be the person that pushed the stop button on ol' Fuckwad.
Rury89
I would sell your kidney for no reason
suiseiseki
No reason is the only realistic reason.
slayston
I do fucking love that you said someone's kidney and not your own. That's grade A comedy
suiseiseki
Wh- Oh yeah, definitely comedy. It's good to have a laugh now and then. Uh, apropos of nothing, would you be interested in a pale of freshly plucked corneas?
bippityboppitybuttsex
It was a trump staffer
suiseiseki
I would sell a Trump staffer's kidney to push the stop button on ol' Fuckwad.
woozle
if only there was what looked like an operating escalator nearby
GrandmaSlappy
what is he going to do, go down half a flight of stairs to use an escalator?
KWJester49
He had just stepped onto it, wasnt halfway up. But his videographer probably would have tripped the safety on that one too if he moved over
pullingsixty
My first thought seeing the video. Like dude! There's a working escalator directly beside you! Then when I read he had a videographer I realized they probably had lit that particular escalator that they were on. Trump being a tv guy would probably have followed instructions to use that escalator.
mrthewhitee
Have you guys never seen escalators before?
One goes up and the other goes down.
This man struggled on stairs, you think he's gonna attempt to go up a down escalator?
thedudeman519
Did you not watch the video?
thedudeman519
Here it is for reference.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpLpHW1nHm8
They are both going up.
pullingsixty
Steady on there friend. There was a second escalator directly to their right that was also going up and it kept going after trump's had stopped. Really not uncommon in large buildings with a lot of foot traffic. Look at it again.
mrthewhitee
You mean the down escalator?
thedudeman519
They mean the other up escalator right next to the one that stopped.
GenStrike
It was also going up, in the video clip aired.

Remember when we had presidents that would go jogging?
Magus25
Fun fact the last 4-5 presidents (besides Obama) have been more or less the same age. Clinton, Bush, and Trump are the same age. The President gets older, but the ruling class stays the same.
cytherians
Even Bill Clinton who would frequently scarf down McDonald's hamburgers and fries for lunch would go jogging.
SomeDetroitGuy
George W Bush would spend his vacation time doing physical labor around his ranch and rode his bike long distances. Barack Obama would play baseketball. Bill Clinton would jog. We used to have Presidents who were actually fit.
appleporpoise
We used to have presidents who were actually fit to hold the title.
SomeDetroitGuy
Fair
bippityboppitybuttsex
They literally said to bomb the UN on Fox News...
Malak224
That is so fucking stupid it actually made me laugh.
bourbonandbaddecisions
Sounds like a terrorist threat. ke
StarmineRendezvous
Or Gas it. They tossed that one out too. Gotta start normalizing the idea of gassing their opposition after all.
MadamPuddifoot
Of course they did 🙄

Republicans are not held to any measurable accountability. Seriously need to halt government, so their batshit crazy ideas don’t work.

SheepySleepySmuggler
Fortunately, Hegseth will be too hungover to respond quickly or New York might have been attacked...
Hexidimentional
the best part is the UN building the guy was talking about bombing is in new york city, and he even catches the implcations while on air
bippityboppitybuttsex
Well, it isn't like terroristic threats against NYC are a thing that makes New Yorkers uncomfortable or anything...
Hexidimentional
certainly a fucking thing to say in september
bippityboppitybuttsex
And he works in NYC... he should find no place of comfort in civilized society.

“What we need to do is either leave the U.N. or we need to bomb it,” he smirked, prompting his co-hosts to giggle off-camera.
Thinking his plan through a bit, Watters wondered, “It is in New York, though, right? Could be some fallout there. Maybe gas it?”
They then went into Schrodinger's Asshole mode, if you get mad, he was just kidding.

"Ok then I'm mad that you think that its even something to kid about"

Isnt calling for the bombing of a US city as a US Citizen some kind of treason?
meme2zombie
Legally no, but yes it's treasonous.
bippityboppitybuttsex
Ah, but the Republican Fox News Exception, they are allowed to make terroristic threats... see the MN mass shootings of homeless encampments after Brian Kilmeade told his followers to execute them
xj4low
It is if you are a democrat. But the rules don't apply to republicans.
DatDarthCaedus
Well, if he was still alive you could've asked Trump's former butler if he ever saw any consequences for calling for Obama (who was President at the time) to be executed, and multiple US cities to be nuked.
Spoiler alert; he did not, other than having to talk to the SS for a bit.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Senecal
RatsLiveOnNoEvilStar
From what I understand of the legal definition of treason, for any kind of treason to apply, the US has to be at war. The US hasn’t declared war since WWII
JimmyWalkerTexasRanger
Domestic Terrorist.
NonstopRampage
Okay, but who's gonna execute them? The government ain't gonna do it, they're on the same side- and the PEOPLE aren't gonna do it, there's a literal fascist takeover, and all the americans are doing is memeing about it or waving signs.
TungstenOrbital
Trying to stop them anymore aggressively would just give Dump the go ahead to declare martial law
NonstopRampage
No, stoppit. You guys always say that he's gonna do that if we escalate, and then we don't, and he gets worse ANYWAY. Dealing with assholes who won't stop UNLESS stopped, is my specialty, and I could've told you from day one that that's what we're dealing with.
criablelurst
That's because it's already happened. I mean people didn't really try to stop them before either. Revolution or total authoritarian control are your two options.
NonstopRampage
Well, on the bright side, there's a good chance that all those assholes on our side who kept shouting us down when we said "we need to stop these fuckers!" are gonna be the first ones on the chopping block.
Atleast it'll be alot easier to organize without THOSE shitheads around.
TacoPoweredHelicopter
You think a fox news anchor knows where the UN general assembly is?

I was going to say, it's unlikely they realize it's in the USA
