Donald Trump was left embarrassed after an escalator stopped while he and Melania were stepping onto it at the UN headquarters. The mishap quickly became new material for his ongoing feud with TV host Jimmy Kimmel.
Their clash began when ABC briefly suspended Kimmel for comments about Trump and conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s death. Trump celebrated the suspension, but Kimmel soon returned, mocking the president in his monologue.
After the escalator halted, Trump accused the UN of sabotage, claiming the incident could have been disastrous and even calling for arrests. While Trump fumed, Kimmel poked fun by posting a lighthearted photo of his sidekick Guillermo on a working escalator, continuing their public war of words with biting humor.
