As Donald Trump was landing in Mexico City for a last-minute meeting with the Mexican president, Sen. Barbara Boxer unleashed a tweetstorm on the Republican nominee, based on Mother Jones' report on his modeling agency's use of foreign models who worked illegally in the US.
Boxer, a vocal critic of Trump, took to social media on Wednesday with the following:

Barbara Boxer @BarbaraBoxer

Trump supporters are fine with white European illegal immigration. The only illegals they want tossed out are the brown ones.
