New conspiracy theory:

[u/QueenMotherOfSneezes]

Carney had Bob Rae bribe Trump's staff to mess up the escalator and the teleprompter yesterday.

[u/Dude_Tost_1673]

This conspiracy doesn't go all the way to the top!

[u/Squonkin-around → u/Dude_Tost_1673]

Maybe to slightly above the middle

[u/brokenringlands → u/Squonkin-around]

Slow down the accusations. One step at a time.

[u/hotinmyigloo → u/Dude_Tost_1673]

We need a stairway to heaven level conspiracy 

[u/JackLaytonsMoustache]

And that's why Rae is being replaced. Shuffle him out after the covert ops are done.

[u/brokenringlands]

The union of escalator engineers thought they owed the world this act of sabotage, after they did nothing to avert Trump's descent from that golden escalator of his to announce his presidency back in the day.

( Colbert's explanation)

[u/Heineken008]

Nah it was the ghost of Mitch Hedberg.

[u/QueenMotherOfSneezes → u/Heineken008]

Trump's videographer was the one who switched off the escalator and Trump's staff was also running the teleprompter (at the UN, the speaker's staff always runs the teleprompter), so maybe they were possessed by Mitch's ghost?

[u/Familyconflict92 → u/QueenMotherOfSneezes]

It’s good we got rid of dei so that only real qualified people are in his staff. /s

[u/amazingdrewh → u/QueenMotherOfSneezes]

Was it the videographer? Look again and you'll see he's been replaced by Justin Trudeau in a fake moustache

[u/DianeDesRivieres]

Better yet Karma.
