Federal prosecutors on Monday told jurors that Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) sold out his office and constituents to the highest bidder, during closing arguments in the sweeping bribery and corruption trial.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Paul Monteleoni said three times the power the sitting senator held was “never enough,” a reference to when Menendez proposed to his wife, Nadine, outside the Taj Mahal in India. The senator did it while singing the song “Never Enough” from the movie The Greatest Showman.
