President Donald Trump assailed the United Nations and other countries in a grievance-laden speech that saw him accuse the world body of offering nothing but “empty words,” label climate change a “con job” and warn that open borders are destroying them.

Setting aside calls for unity, Trump began his speech to the UN General Assembly by venting his frustration that the UN hadn’t done more to support his diplomatic efforts. He faulted the organization over an escalator that broke down just as First Lady Melania Trump stepped onto it, said his teleprompter was also malfunctioning and ruminated on a two-decade-old grudge over his rejected bid to renovate the UN headquarters.

Bloomberg Washington Correspondents Joe Mathieu and Kailey Leinz deliver insight and analysis on the latest headlines from the White House and Capitol Hill, including conversations with influential lawmakers and key figures in politics and policy. On this edition, Joe speaks with:
Bloomberg Washington Correspondent Tyler Kendall.
Bloomberg Economics Senior Geoeconomics Analyst Adam Farrar.
Stonecourt Capital Partner Rick Davis and Harvard Kennedy School's Ash Center Visiting Democracy Fellow Jeanne Sheehan Zaino.
Latvian President Edgars Rinkēvičs.
