Yeah, I read an article that another user posted. I think I prefer the term 'undisclosed.' At least in my head, secret means someone is in trouble for leaking it. There was a paper trail, for example.

I guess the use is valid, but I'm not sure it's objective. I don't prefer Trump, but I do try to remain objective. Try being the operative word.



Secret just means the vast majority of people can't know the details. You can have a huge paper trail with secret classified documentation.

EX: Huge gang's may have secret handshakes.
