President Donald Trump used his address to the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly to decry the state of the organization and detail his vision for a new world order.
Acting as a metaphor for the organization as a whole, Trump highlighted that he was met with a broken escalator and a malfunctioning teleprompter, before tearing apart the institution itself over the course of an hour. He contrasted the failures of the U.N. with his own domestic accomplishments, namely immigration and the economy, and his foreign policy achievements.
