It is reported that on the 23rd local time, trump said in his speech in Pittsburgh: "we are building a wall at the border of New Mexico. We're also building a wall in Colorado. " Not only that, he added, the wall will be 'a really working high wall -- you can't cross or drill through'.
But according to CNN, Colorado is actually located just north of New Mexico, not on the U.S. - Mexico border.
USA today said there were no reports that Colorado was building a wall. However, a section of the border wall along the Colorado River in Arizona is under construction. According to the report, trump probably said the wrong thing.
CNN noted that later on the 23rd, Colorado governor Jared & middot; In response to trump's remarks on twitter, Boris said: 'well, it's embarrassing & hellip& hellip; Colorado doesn't border Mexico. " Then, he joked: "fortunately, there are free full-time kindergartens in Colorado, and our children can learn basic geography."
Last month, US Defense Secretary esper approved the transfer of US $3.6 billion in military spending to the construction of the US Mexico border wall, which was fiercely opposed by the Senate, the house of Representatives and non-governmental organizations.
