the Interview of Michael Cohen was an astonishing moment in the congress, which Cohen described the US president as a crook, swindler and a racist. But kongressledamöternas hearing was, at times, frustrating. Several democrats asked the amateurish, diffuse and a little sleepy issues, while the republicans consistently devoted themselves to trying to denigrate Cohen and question his credibility as a witness.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who just sat in the congress in less than two months, asked questions of Trump’s companies, skattepapper and possible fraud. Cohen said that Trumps business, it was, among other things, the president’s golf courses – have been involved in what can be insurance fraud and tax fraud.

in response to Ocasio-Cortez in affairs said Cohen in particular that the congress should examine Trumps personal tax return, during the investigation of these shops. Trump is the first president in U.S. modern history that have not published their tax returns, but with Ocasio-Cortez hearing took the Democrats a substantial step closer to the goal to demand to see these documents.

democrats spent the hearing to diffuse any speculation or details surrounding the scandals already revealed, was Ocasio-Cortez hearing more bluntly. She clearly wanted to get Cohen to under oath say that congress needs to get better insight in Trump’s enterprises and the private economy – and she succeeded.

– it Would help us if we got to see the federal skattepapper and delstatsdeklarationer from the president and his company? she asked Cohen.

“I think so,” he replied.

prosecutor Robert mueller’s investigation shows a lack of information that directly identifies Donald Trump for anything criminal, so can the Democrats, partly with the help of the Ocasio-Cortez interrogation, now have a way forward for new investigations.
