It is possible this thing goes away, but it is also possible it goes sideways for months or years, even with no evidence. It is a way the uniparty has in the past kept a cloud over other administrations.
In this case it is also a way to divert attention away from the very true and multiple deadly crimes committed by the Clintons and Obama, and potentially keep RINO’s from looking like accomplices for going along, while striking a level of fear in any fence riding establishment types who might otherwise be willing to go after the former administrations and Secretary of State.
Actually, I believe the real objective of this entire effort is to keep our current administration, and efforts to bring real justice, on their heals.
So far the universal left wing propaganda/media and multiple investigatory efforts are working very well to stall what appears to be fearful AG leadership.
At their core definitions, both the leakers AND the media are truly guilty of sedition, treason, and death. They have been for generations, but not to this extent and degree.
