Although it has been 24 hours since the incident, Trump is still very angry about what happened to him at the United Nations.
Trump wrote today (Beijing Time September 25): "The real disgrace that happened at the United Nations yesterday was not one or two things, but three very sinister incidents! First of all, the escalator leading to the main speaking platform suddenly stopped abruptly and came to a halt instantly. Surprisingly, my wife Melania and I did not fall face down on the sharp steel edges of the escalator. Fortunately, we both held on tightly to the handrails, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable. This is definitely an act of sabotage, as pointed out by a "post" in The London Times the day before, the United Nations staff 'joked about turning off the escalator'. Those who did this should be arrested! Then, when I was standing in front of millions of television viewers around the world and important leaders in the hall, my teleprompter broke down. It became pitch black. I immediately thought: 'Wow, first the escalator incident, and now a broken teleprompter. What place is this?' After that, I gave a speech without the teleprompter, and it took about 15 minutes for the teleprompter to start working again. The good news is that my speech received extremely high praise. Perhaps they realized that few people could do what I did. Thirdly, after the speech, I was told that the sound in the meeting room was completely wrong, and nothing could be heard unless the leaders from all over the world used the headphones of the interpreters. The first person I met after the speech was Melania sitting in the front row. I asked her, 'How did I do?' She said, 'I couldn't hear a single word you said.' This is no coincidence, but a triple destruction of the United Nations. They should be ashamed of themselves. I will send a copy of this letter to the Secretary-General and demand an immediate investigation. No wonder the United Nations has failed to fulfill its mission. All the security footage from the escalator should be preserved, especially the emergency stop button. The Secret Service has gotten involved. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"
[Witty] Additional Information: The United Nations stated that since President Trump took office in January 2025, the United States has almost ceased paying its dues, and there are still unpaid arrears for 2024, with the total amount of arrears exceeding $3 billion. This includes over $820 million in regular budget contributions for 2025, as well as previous arrears and unpaid peacekeeping funds. The U.S. arrears account for 70%-80% of the total arrears of the United Nations.
