“He” is not hiring people. Unknown folks in many parts of the country are making decisions based on the information they have. Hopefully, they wouldn’t knowingly hire an illegal. I can’t imagine anyone saying that they support such a thing.
It’s like saying that the CEO of Holiday Inn hires the maids at the Hoboken South Holiday Inn. He doesn’t have a clue who gets hired, and I’m betting the company policy is not to hire illegals.
But local managers might do so for a variety of reasons to get over.
Yes he is. He sends the directive to his personnel departments. He hires the lawyers who write the contracts. Any such stipulations are at his personal option. If the illegals are there they are his responsibility.
