Well yeah. He's gotten away with every other time he's obstructed justice. Why would this be any different?

Surprise, surprise... political and financial elites hate imprisoning their own kind. It sets a bad precedent, I guess.

It makes me think of Silvio Berlusconi, who was convicted of a laundry list of crimes by Italian courts... and his only punishment was a week entertaining people at an old age home.
