After Trump Says He's 'Building a Wall in Colorado,' Democratic Senator Ingeniously Redraws U.S. Map to Make It So

After Trump Says He's 'Building a Wall in Colorado,' Democratic Senator Ingeniously Redraws U.S. Map to Make It So

Excellent trolling, Senator.

President Donald Trump spoke to energy workers at the Shale Insight Conference in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Wednesday night.

The rambling speech lasted a little over an hour, with Trump predictably railing against witch hunts and Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT). One claim, however, stood out when the President brought up his long-sought wall at the southern border.


Watch below.

Trump bragged about building an impenetrable wall in Colorado.

"And 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."

The problem? Colorado isn't a border state. There can't be a border wall in Colorado without excluding New Mexico, an actual border state.

Trump attempted to explain his remarks on Twitter.

But Democratic Senator from Vermont, Patrick Leahy, wasted no time in trolling Trump over the gaffe.

Leahy redrew a United States map to include New Mexico as a part of Mexico, thereby making Colorado a border state and Trump's comment correct. A sharpie sits in the corner, just barely visible on the screen.

Edited with permanent marker, the map alludes to Trump's redrawing of an official weather forecast with Sharpie last month in an effort to vindicate his claims that Hurricane Dorian would hit Alabama, despite weather officials saying it wouldn't.

People got the joke.

Some thought Trump was just confusing New Mexico with Mexico.

Geography is hard.

Trump's Commencement Speech Claim That The U.S. Is 'Hot' Right Now Turns Into Hilariously Brutal Self-Own

President Donald Trump's attempt to smear the Biden administration turned into a self-own while he spoke at the commencement ceremony for the U.S. Coast Guard Academy this week.

Trump spoke as several hundred protesters gathered outside Coast Guard Academy campus in New London, Connecticut. During the nearly hour-long address to cadets and their families, he alternated between praising the graduating class of 2026 and revisiting familiar themes about what he described as the country’s recovery after a period of decline.

ChatGPT Response Appears To Make It Into School Textbook—And We're Doomed

Students are being actively discouraged from using ChatGPT and other AI-generation tools, as they are expected to learn their educational concepts and be able to put them into practice. They are also not supposed to use these tools while writing papers or during at-home tests.

Given how expensive grade school and college textbooks are, it is reasonable that educational writers and content professionals should be held to the same standards. Wouldn't it make sense for them to use the knowledge of their field, rather than what's been fed into ChatGPT, to make a textbook a worthwhile purchase for students?
