Which means foreign workers were assisting him in his campaign , violating federal election laws. Tillis only beat Kay Hagan by a couple of percentage points.

It might be the explanation of why the republican leadership won't say a word against the republican president.

As far as how many hired them, I doubt there's a way to know. In the video they were talking about how they cover their footprints by creating shell companies to accept payment and conduct their business.
