President Trump Announces a Wall in Colorado Mike Vance October 24, 2019 News On Wednesday President Trump declared the United States is building a border wall in Colorado, even though the state does not sit on the U.S.-Mexico border. “You know why we're going to win New Mexico? Because they want safety on their border. And they didn't have it," President Trump said during a speech at a conference in Pittsburgh. “And we’re building a wall on the border of New Mexico," Trump continued. "And we’re building a wall in Colorado. We’re building a beautiful wall, a big one that really works that you can’t get over, you can’t get under. He wasn't done: “And we’re building a wall in Texas. And we’re not building a wall in Kansas, but they get the benefit of the walls we just mentioned. And Lousiana’s incredible.” President Trump: "We're building a wall on the border of New Mexico and we're building a wall in Colorado." pic.twitter.com/f9ZIdxOhXt — The Hill (@thehill) October 23, 2019 With Colorado sitting directly north of New Mexico, there are no reports of a wall being built there. This was a case of President Trump's enthusiasm for border security getting the best of him. Of course people took to Twitter to make fun of him for his misstep. https://t.co/fmE0hiPLNB pic.twitter.com/gMzNIcl5Qu — Sen.
