beneficiary of a crime and never charged with one. what comes through in the washington post reporting is the idea that more so than any other prior case, this one does, in its witnesses and evidence try to grow closer to donald trump. ari, michael cohen has laid out the entire scheme for us for years now. the alleged scheme is he pumps up the valuation of his assets when it s time for him to get a loan from the only banks that will still loan him money and he down plays his valuations on his assets when it s time for him to pay taxes. that clip you showed from eric trump, literally plays that scheme. that s a golf course compound. michael cohen laid this out in front of congress. he s given testimony wards this end. this is not a complicated charge. this is a simple tax evasion
