A White House videographer, who was traveling backward up the escalator to try to film the president’s entrance, might have inadvertently triggered a built-in safety mechanism, a UN spokesman said. Trump was arriving to give an address to the UN General Assembly, and he included complaints about the escalator multiple times in the speech. “All I got from the United Nations was an escalator on the way up that stopped right in the middle,” he said, adding that the first lady would have fallen if she was not in great shape.
