    Then he complains about it at the podium to all the world leaders.

    That’s your guy, MAGA. A petulant, toddler-brained buffoon.

    Sure says at least as much about you if he’s your god.

    Fucking pathetic.

    I just saw this video clip while watching last night’s Kimmel. Trump was furious - look at his expression in that picture…because an escalator stopped. The smallest of setbacks drives him to a crazy level of fury.

    Like Kimmel said, “If only that had happened 10 years ago.”

      Wasn’t the escalator directly next to the stopped one running properly? As someone with bad knees I would have sighed and moved to the next one

      American culture has been brewing megalomaniacs like this for some time now. Celebration of greed and romanticizing the idea that wealth / power need not come with accountability are necessary ingredients.

      Of course all empires go through these cycles. What’s uncomfortable, I’m sure for some Americans, is that this usually marks the end of a properous time. Its the “we’re not as special as we used to be, time to throw a tantrum” stage.

      Anyone can ask themselves this question - which do you associate modern american culture with? Gratitude or entitlement? That will tell you all you need to know about the direction of the nation.

    It was a U.N. escalator and not one of those Chinese escalators that eat people. The stars didnt fully align.

    Please let it be an act of a lovely person who in their own way represented the view of billions around the world. Perhaps the orange baby needs to know how much hate he has and the proportion of the worlds population
