On this rare occasion, he isn't lying
From the NEW YORK TIMES
Under the changes agreed to by Mexico and the United States, car companies would be required to manufacture at least 75 percent of an automobile’s value in North America under the new rules, up from 62.5 percent, to qualify for Nafta’s zero tariffs. They will also be required to use more local steel, aluminum and auto parts, and have 40 to 45 percent of the car made by workers earning at least $16 an hour, a boon to both the United States and Canada and a win for labor unions, which have been among Nafta’s biggest critics.
But it part of the deal they are currently working on
So I think that now makes the score
Kidiot not lying 1
Kidiot lying or making stuff up 1,000,000

Source?
(and please a reliable news source and not a rightwing satirical/opinion website like Breitbart)
Also, when you say that "... requires some of their exports to be built at a minimum wage",
do you mean that the workers (who build the exports) receive said minimum wage or higher,
or do you mean that the workers should receive the minimum wage and not a cent more?

you have to accuse the Trump clan of doing the same thing, as almost all of the Trumps fashion collection (both, of Donnie as well es Ivanka) gets produced in asian countries (and surely not because the stuff produced there is superior, but rather for the sole reason of cheap labor costs)
MAGA ... Make Asia Great Again

Well, AFAIK it is the GOP who is opposed to minimum wages,
so, to use your own arguments against them: At least the woman has a job, which she wouldn't have if minimum wages would be introduced
