Now that everyone knows Mexico had agreed months ago to the concessions Trump won he comes up with a 3rd grader lie that there are 'other, secret' things he negotiated. It seems they are so secret even Mexico doesnt know about them. He has even renewed the threat of tariffs if they dont follow through on the secret agreement they dont know about.
This is how the USA treats its trade partners and lies to everyone.
No Secret Immigration Deal Exists With U.S., Mexico’s Foreign Minister Says
WASHINGTON — The Mexican foreign minister said Monday that no secret immigration deal existed between his country and the United States, directly contradicting President Trump’s claim on Twitter that a “fully signed and documented” agreement would be revealed soon.
Marcelo Ebrard, Mexico’s top diplomat, said at a news conference in Mexico City that there was an understanding that both sides would evaluate the flow of migrants in the coming months. And if the number of migrants crossing the United States border was not significantly reduced, he said, both sides had agreed to renew discussions about more aggressive changes to regional asylum rules that could make a bigger impact.
“Let’s have a deadline to see if what we have works and if not, then we will sit down and look at the measures you propose and those that we propose,” Mr. Ebrard said, describing the understanding reached by negotiators last week.
Mr. Trump has insisted for several days that the agreement reached with Mexico Friday evening is a strong one, rejecting criticism that it largely called upon the Mexicans to take actions to reduce the flow of immigration that they had already agreed to months earlier.
In a Twitter post on Monday morning, he said, “We have fully signed and documented another very important part of the Immigration and Security deal with Mexico, one that the U.S. has been asking about getting for many years. It will be revealed in the not too distant future and will need a vote by Mexico’s Legislative body!”

"The Mexican foreign minister said Monday that no secret immigration deal existed between his country and the United States" its an unambiguous statement by the Mexican Government. I realize reading is 'suspicious' to most but the fact that something said is recorded and written in the presence of witnesses is actually a good basis to believe it.
Meanwhile you believe a Presidential toilet-twitter and lie #10,298.
Why is the agreement secret? Why is Trump the only one on either side that knows about this agreement? How can it be an agreement if only one side knows about it?
You'd have to be willing to believe that Trump is capable of lying to his own supporters to cover his own fuck ups to believe that he would claim there was some sort of side agreement that makes this whole thing even more MAGA.
Trump supporters know that Trump has never fucked up, or lied, ever, about anything. So it has to be MAGA, right?

As long as it lines up with the narrative. If somebody says something in front of witnesses that I don't like then we ignore that.

not just 'someone' it was the President of Mexico dipshit. Trump says he has a secret agreement with Mexico and the Mexican President either doesnt know or wont admit he knows what trump is talking about - thats why agreements are in writing.
The President of Mexico just told his people he had to agree to this arrangement to avoid serious economic effects of Trump's tariffs. There were even witnesses.
But feel free to ignore that as the media have determined it does not fit the narrative you have been ordered to believe in without question.

Yes there is an agreement - they formalized everything Mexico agreed to in December and later in March. As to another 'secret deal' Trump is lying about, they deny that. So try and keep up ok.
Are we also pretending that Trump has stopped N. Korea from developing nukes? He asked Japanese Prime Minister to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize for that right?
