"Tough on illegal immigration unless he’s importing foreign models to exploit."

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:

Apparently Trump never built a wall to keep foreign models from working illegally in this country for low pay. https://twitter.com/MotherJones/status/770731624334036992

Barbara Boxer @BarbaraBoxer
When Trump meets with the President of Mexico, will he call for a hole in the wall just for models? http://bit.ly/2bztZJ6

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