Did Ben Carson really get stuck in an elevator or was that just Sean Spicer's way of explaining to the press how slavery happened?

1. Fake news!

It was an escalator.

2. Almost.

He got stuck on an escalator.

3. It was in Florida. The news people said elevator and said that he

was rescued. The event happened at a government housing project in the southern part of the state.

5. because Trump is cutting maintenance monies

9. Actually, elevators at elevated government housing

have been poorly maintained for a while. I remember during the Democratic Primary in NYC, a broken elevator at one development was a big issue. In that case, the maintenance backlog for NYC public housing was estimated in the tens of billions. I think the issue is voiceless, generally non voting people over what Trump is trying to do. While Democrats are infinitely better at helping the poor and voiceless than republicans, even Democrats react to the loudest voices (either votes or donations).

6. Nope, it was an escalator.

He didn't get off of it for hours and hours until power was restored.

7. Apparently true

If Houdini can get caught in a phone booth, I guess Carson can get caught in an elevator.

8. No. His elevator never went to the top floor anyway.
