I also suspect that by 2026, there will be a large amount of moderate Republicans that are going to have buyer's remorse when they realize that Trump isn't protecting their freedoms or their wallet, and America is going to have to start making their voices heard. Many Republicans will spin doctor what Trump does, but many will also have a breaking point - and it's not even Trump that's the problem, it's his surrounding people and PACs that will greatly make up that equation too. Things are going to get reprehensibly worse before they get better unfortunately.
As you and Ingelwood Jack alluded to (and same with what Jimmy Kimmel said the other night) the next four years may be needed to 'reset' the political spectrum as something that was needed to eventually get American democracy back on the right track. The beginning of the rebuild, so to speak. You could say they're at their Summer 2022-2023 Treliving era right now.
