The reason this is relevant is because he has spent the better part of a year complaining about “illegal immigrants” who are “invading” the country. But an old video from 2013 resurfaced on Saturday that appears to show the billionaire admitting he was at one point building his small business in the country illegally, describing it as a “gray area.”

He came in legally, then did things that should have gotten his visa revoked and disqualified him from entering the country again. Which means he wasn't an illegal immigrant, but now he is.
