text: “The border is complicated, as far as building a physical wall,” Zinke said at an event held by the Public Lands Council, according to E&E News. 
  
  
  He went on to say, “The Rio Grande, what side of the river are you going to put the wall? We’re not going to put it on our side and cede the river to Mexico. 
  
  
  And we’re probably not going to put it in the middle of the river.”
  
  Zinke’s answer to that problem was similar to Bannon treating the members of the Freedom Caucus like a child who can be ordered to comply with your wishes.
  
  
  Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke proposed Tuesday that the U.S. build its border wall on Mexico’s side of the border.
  
  
  Of course, there is that little problem of sovereignty to contend with!
  
   It was easily one of the most ridiculous things I’ve heard from Trump or any of his associates. I doubt that Mexico will respond any differently to that idea than the Freedom Caucus member did to Bannon.
