I can. If he uses it to talk to his supporters and placates them with "the people who were against us are our fellow citizens, and my goal now is to bring them all together with us", and so forth. Gives the "Stop being jerks" talk to the fringe elements. Doesn't threaten protesters but says things like "we have to show them that they're wrong, and once they see what I'm doing they'll be voting for me in four years".
None of that is likely, but it would certainly be positive if he did it. At this point, he's the only one who can do anything to remedy the damage he's caused, or even slow it down. Obviously, he's the only person they'll listen to.
