Any bets he still doesn't face appropriate consequences?
If you can name a single time the DoJ has went through this much time & expense to let someone go, I would love to hear about it.

I'm not saying they aren't working on it but I am saying take a look at how many legal issues he's had with no repercussion so far. If the average person had boxes and boxes of these documents in their house, if you did or if I did, would we still be out flying around the country and dining out? No. Absolutely not. He's already being treated preferentially as it is.
Agreed. I'm a veteran,I had a lower security clearance, and I can attest that the sheer number of times the government warns about the consequences relating to classified materials is very high. There is no question that a military member handling things as Trump did would be locked away quickly and for the long haul.
Still I hold out hope that 45 will face the consequences he's due without pardon. Otherwise it would be setting a dangerous precedent for national security, and I can't think of anything the government holds more dearly than that. Letting 45 off the hook is effectively saying they value him more than national security, no?
