Former Trump workers share a stage with Joe Biden -- and blast their ex-employer




For years, Sandra Diaz and Victorina Morales were undocumented and largely invisible employees of Donald Trump, domestics who laid out his golf clothes, served his meals and scrubbed his toilets, even as he took aim at illegal immigrants and Hispanics on the way to becoming president.

On Wednesday, the women held themselves up as symbols of what they called Trump’s hypocritical immigration policies as they received a standing ovation from Local 226, a culinary workers union that hosted three Democratic presidential candidates this week.

A short time after Morales and Diaz denounced their former employer Wednesday, they got a hug from one of Trump’s chief opponents,
former vice president Joe Biden, who was making his pitch to the largely Latino gathering of union workers.

“I’m going to tell you who is Mr. Trump,” Diaz told the crowd. “How he’s a big liar. .?.?. He still lies about immigrants. He says we are bad people. And I will stand here and say he lies, because we are good workers and good people.”

or employed for as long as they existed, imported and often undocumented workers, many of whom are brought to the U.S. to work in those businesses. That is the most honest endorsement of their worth that Trump could make, albeit completely involuntary and unintended of course.
