OH FFS. Trump pulls folded piece of paper from pocket, tells reporters it's the SECRET MEXICO DEAL.

CNN Politics
@CNNPolitics

President Trump pulls a piece of paper from his jacket he says is one page of a secret agreement with Mexico: "I am going to let Mexico do the announcement at the right time."

The Mexican foreign minister indicated there is no secret or outstanding deal (link: https://cnn.it/2WvzVdp) cnn.it/2WvzVdp

In 1950, McCarthy pulled out a piece of paper at a Ladies' Luncheon in WV and claimed it contained the names of 205 Communists within the US Government. It was never proved the paper contained a single name.

The letter he said was..."well, you know, too personal to share details" with reporters yesterday?

What a pathalogical liar, lame loser, and lowlife, pathetic sad little man.

Run about 4-5 pages so how possibly can a trade agreement be a 1 page document. I would expect a cover letter to even be more than one page. So what exactly was that sheet of paper.
