How many people do you think will be indicted?

Around 40 people were indicted for watergate. This is bigger. How many do you think will be indicted. 50,100, we already are up to 19. I know the Russians don't really count. So many people will be indicted for perjury alone.

with trials or pleas resulting in 48 being found guilty. It's hard to say at this point how many people might be in trouble because there are always a lot of smaller cogs in these wheels that nobody has heard of. Many of the 69 in Watergate were unknown to the public at the time; there were only a couple dozen that anybody had heard of.
