Did Trump really say this? Or is it more "fake news"?

I read an article this morning saying that American President Donal Trump claimed yesterday to be building a wall in Colorado. But Colorado does not border Mexico, though it does border New Mexico, an American State. I got my information from Huffington Post, which leans to the Left. I'd better check FOX News, which leans to the Right, to see if this really happened. Had you heard about this?

Maybe the Lefties overdubbed him saying that. Fake news, I say!

Maybe he's building a house? Houses need walls. But if you check one left leaning and one right leaning, you might end up right in the middle.

If he does left, right, forward and back, he could have a pyramid!

@TheHorse That'd be exciting! He could put a big cat figure with his head on it in front of the pyramid. Trump + sphinx = sphumx

@Torunn I wouldn't put that beyond him. Trump's election sometimes makes me think of "The Second Coming" by W.B. Yeats. There's a Sphinx image in that poem! A shape with lion body and the head of a man, A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun, Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.

The research psychologist in me would like to do a simple experiment examining the IQs of those who voted for Trump v. those who voted for Hillary. (Comparing one preexisting group to another is called a "quasi-experimental" design.) The odd thing is, I don't think the difference would be that great. In my heart of hearts, I still blame "political correctness," and its offensiveness to many Americans (myself included) for Trump's election. I also think Hillary's handlers "over-polished" her. As Bob Woodward said in "Fear," his book about Trump, Hillary seemed like she was lying even when she was telling the truth.

Sigh. I just checked FOX News (I don't trust most of the press--run by Commies, you know). Even they covered it.
President Trump caught flack on Wednesday after he boasted-- incorrectly-- that he is "building a beautiful wall" in Colorado, a state that does not border Mexico.

It may not have been a political statement but simply proof that Trump has no idea about geography.

I would say nothing surprises me about this man - but actually I am just a tiny bit surprised that he deosn't even know that!

His presidency wants to make me reread Camus. He (Camus) refused to be characterized as an existentialist, and considered himself an "absuridist." I do love life for its absurdity.

@TheHorse It's amusing and scary. Amusing that he said it; scary that I think he might be seriously considering it.

Huffington Post comes with quite a few fake news. In fact most of media around the world now a days are more into headline management rather than actual reporting. And if he has actually said so, it's ridiculous.

It seems that all news sources "spin" what actually happened to suit the narrative they prefer.

@TheHorse Poor fellow! He again had his foo tin his mouth. Good that he apologized in time for his ignorance about Geaography of America. He has been quite much in news for his big mouth and media really targets him for everything that he misspeaks.

Trump did not say that there was a wall being built South of Colorado? How did they fake the videos? Overdubbing? I admit that I have used overdubbing in some of my music videos, so it IS possible.
