A teleprompter and moving staircase misfunction prompted US chairperson Donald Trump's UN speech communication to take up off shakily as he joked that whomever was in charge of the equipment was “in big trouble.”
Trump was greeted with accolades when he entered the UN for the first time since starting his second term in January. Minutes into his address, Trump claimed that the only things he received from the UN were a malfunctioning teleprompter and a broken escalator.
“I feel very happy to be up here with you [...] and that way you speak more from the heart. I can only say that whoever's operating this teleprompter is in big trouble,” he stated.
Complaining about the escalator, which suddenly stopped working on his and Melania Trump's entry, the POTUS said, “All I got from the United Nations was an escalator that on the way up, stopped right in the middle.”
“If the First Lady wasn't in great shape, she would have fallen. But we're in great shape, we're both in good shape, and then the teleprompter didn't work, these are the two things I got from the United Nations.”
