Donald Trump and members of his Secret Service detail were briefly trapped in an elevator Friday before a campaign rally in Colorado Springs.

They were rescued by firefighters with the Colorado Springs Fire Department, which lowered a ladder into the elevator, allowing Trump and his entourage to climb out.

Trump eventually took the stage at the rally, where he opened his remarks by blasting the local fire marshal for shutting off entry to his campaign event due to capacity restrictions.

"This is why our country doesn't work," Trump said as he slammed the Colorado Springs fire marshal during the rally, moments after the department's firefighters rescued him. The paper reported that Trump said the fire marshal "didn't know what he was doing and 'was probably a Democrat.' "

Fire marshal Brett Lacey told a local TV station that organizers handed out too many tickets and the venue couldn't accommodate all of the people who wanted to attend.
 
Goddamn Donald Trump really is a thin skinned insecure motherfucker. It seems like he thinks people will somehow think less of him for being trapped in an elevator, so he looks to blame someone else cause he thinks someone will blame him for it.

Yeah, fuck that guy for wanting to ensure that a potential fire doesn't cause a mass stampede and/or the deaths of hundreds of people.
