There are an estimated 12 MILLION illegals in the U.S. They live, work, and raise families in cities and towns across the United States. How do they get jobs?

The president, in an interview with the Post on Tuesday, used the undocumented workers to highlight a change needed in the U.S. immigration system but did not address why illegal immigrants were hired at his businesses.

"This is why we have to fix our immigration system," Trump told the Post. "I am a big proponent for allowing people to come into our country, but they have to come in legally."

Eric Trump told the Washington Post that the company uses E-Verify at some of its businesses, including in states where it's required, and a third-party service at some of the other properties to conduct background checks.

But the president's son said the workers offered false documents to show they were in the U.S. legally, making it hard for the company to know.

"This situation is not unique to Trump Organization — it is one that all companies face," Eric Trump told the Post. "It demonstrates that our immigration system is severely broken and needs to be fixed immediately."
