From the White House pool report, a new incident of Donald Trump being Donald Trump.
[Trump] took a piece of paper out of his breast pocket and said it’s his deal with Mexico. He declined to show it to us, but said it will go into effect when Mexico tells him it’s okay to release it.
“That’s the agreement that everybody says I don’t have. I’m going to let Mexico do the announcement at the right time.”
“This is one page of a very long and very good agreement from Mexico and the United States. Without the tariffs, we would have had nothing.”
To repeat, Trump took a folded piece of paper from his pocket, declared it to be a secret agreement with “Mexico” that Mexico itself has so far said does not exist, and told reporters they’re not allowed to see it until Mexico allows it.
Discuss.
An enhanced version, for the sleuths among us. It looks to be a one-page letter perhaps agreeing to pursue a future agreement if it can be agreed on, or something similar:
Tuesday, Jun 11, 2019 · 5:55:25 PM +00:00 · Mark Sumner
In addition to the “On behalf of the United States…” and “On behalf of Mexico” the center of the page seems to identify this as a “...ary Agreement” and the bottom reveals: "... consistent with each party's domestic and legal obligations, a commitment under which each party would accept the return, and process refuge-status claims, of third-party nationals who have crossed that party's territory."
There. Now you don’t have to wait until Mexico tells him it’s okay to read it.
