“Ever since Trump got back into office, he’s been waging a campaign of vengeance against his enemies, who he believes have been trying to take him down,” Colbert said. “Now, he’s focused all of his rage on the one foe who refused to take him up, and that is the U.N. escalator.” Two individuals ride an escalator.

“Nobody was hurt,” Colbert pointed out. “They walked up the stopped escalator, sometimes known as stairs, but Trump just will not let it go.” A talk show host gestures during a broadcast, wearing a dark suit and tie. A cityscape view is visible through the window behind them

Trump demanded an investigation and even arrests over the incident, although the U.N. said the escalator was stopped accidentally by a member of Trump’s own entourage. A man and a woman ascend an escalator followed by security, with photographers in the background capturing the scene

Colbert liked the video of Trump stopped on the escalator so much that he not only showed it again, but promised to keep doing so. A group of people, including a man in a suit, ascend an escalator while a photographer captures the moment

“I’m so glad neither of those two people were injured,” he said. “Because I will enjoy showing that footage every night until May.” A man in a suit gestures towards the camera on a talk show set with a cityscape backdrop Person in a tuxedo on a formal event backdrop, posing for a photo
