Trumps undocumented employees break their silence

Sandra Diaz and Victorian Morales are the first to speak out publicly about their experience working at a Donald Trump-owned golf resort as undocumented women.

Both were hired as housekeepers at the Trump National Golf Club in New Jersey.

Morales says she was hired in 2013 and Diaz says she worked there from 2010 through 2013.

Art Acevedo and Ed Gonzalez comment on immigration policy.

Both claim managers, employed by the Trump organization, knowingly hired them as undocumented workers.
