catalyst to bring a hammer down (finally) on his corrupt self-aggrandizing, emperor-complex, repugnant-combover head.
No men,yet, have taken his traitorous, sorry ass down.

There's no doubt in my mind who opened the door.
She SHOULD get full credit.

Cohen spoke about the tax evasion early on in the hearing. Cortez just applied it to her local golf course, when she asked about it late in the hearing.
Trump would devalue assets to get his taxes cut, then increase values to get an advantage for other purposes.
Opening statement:
It was my experience that Mr. Trump inflated his total assets when it served
his purposes, such as trying to be listed among the wealthiest people in
Forbes, and deflated his assets to reduce his real estate taxes.
I am sharing with you two newspaper articles, side by side, that are
examples of Mr. Trump inflating and deflating his assets, as I said, to suit
his financial interests. These are Exhibit 2 to my testimony.

Then in testimony later, he explained to a rep. that Trump would decrease values on properties to get his taxes cut, I think touching on the fact that he'd do fake values or get someone to do fake values.
Late in the hearing, Cortez asked about that again, applying it to the golf course nearby.
