My whole town practically lived there: From Costa Rica to New Jersey, a pipeline of illegal workers for Trump goes back years

SANTA TERESA DE CAJON, COSTA RICA At his home on the misty slope of Costa Ricas tallest mountain, Dario Angulo keeps a set of photographs from the years he tended the rolling fairways and clipped greens of a faraway American golf resort.
Angulo learned to drive backhoes and bulldozers, carving water hazards and tee boxes out of former horse pastures in Bedminster, N.J., where a famous New Yorker was building a world-class course. Angulo earned $8 an hour, a fraction of what a state-licensed heavy equipment operator would make, with no benefits or overtime pay. But he stayed seven years on the grounds crew, saving enough for a small piece of land and some cattle back home.
Now the 34-year-old lives with his wife and daughters in a sturdy house built by Trump money, as he put it, with a porch to watch the sun go down.
Its a common story in this small town.
