Trump: I Was Kidding About Colorado Border Wall

The Hill reports:



President Trump early Thursday morning sought to clarify remarks he made regarding his long-promised wall along the southern border, saying he was only kidding when he mentioned that a barrier was being constructed along the non-border state of Colorado.

Trump sparked mockery from several Democratic lawmakers Wednesday night after telling a crowd at the Shale Insight conference in Pittsburgh that the U.S. was in the process of building a wall along the southern border of Colorado, a state that sits directly north New Mexico.

“We’re building a wall on the border of New Mexico. 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 said.
