Since January, a team of Post reporters led by @partlowj @fahrenthold @oconnellpostbiz @nickmiroff having been examining how much Trump’s private company has relied on undocumented workers, even as he has been railing against illegal immigration.

@partlowj @Fahrenthold @OConnellPostbiz @NickMiroff So far, we have interviewed 43 immigrants without legal status who were employed at Trump properties. They include waiters, maids and greenskeepers, as well as a caretaker at a hunting lodge that his two adult sons own in Upstate New York.

@partlowj @Fahrenthold @OConnellPostbiz @NickMiroff President Trump “doesn’t want undocumented people in the country,” said one worker, Jorge Castro, a 55-year-old immigrant from Ecuador without legal status who left the company in April after nine years. “But at his properties, he still has them.”
