36. The question is what do you want the outcome to be?

Do you want to see him go to jail? I agree that lacking a paper trail, that may not happen. But if what you want is that he have no future in national politics, I think that is pretty much a slam dunk at this point. Nobody is buying his lame ass "investigation" and he'll be tainted with the stink of Bridgegate for the rest of his political life.

He may become a commentator on fox news but he won't ever be POTUS. Frankly I doubt he could be elected governor again in NJ.
