President Trump repeatedly blamed the United Nations for his teleprompter issues and a malfunctioning escalator in a spiteful Tuesday speech to the General Assembly. But it seems that both issues were caused directly by his own team.

…

But according to the Associated Press’s Farnoush Amiri, an anonymous U.N. official said the escalator in question was actually stopped prematurely by someone from Trump’s group, who ran ahead of the group and accidentally triggered a stop mechanism. The official added that the teleprompter that Trump was so upset about was also being operated by his White House.

    Seriously, the only notable thing that came from Trump’s speech is the mockery he makes of the place, in front of the green wall where famous leaders of past and present made significant speeches and pledges.

    Trump’s speeches make wherever he is feel like a retirement home or a dementia ward. Not really worth listening to at this point.

    Like boo hoo, the “Left” stopped your escalator and messed with your teleprompter. It was actually your own guys but who gives a crap?
