This is wishful thinking. Democrats are still unwilling to change many of their policies that got them into this mess. People voted against the status quo in 2024, and Democrats are still trying to offer people a return to pre-Trump.

It's possible that Trump will turn people off enough that they vote for someone else, but if the US survives this term I feel like Americans will just view it with the same unreality with which they apparently regarded January 6th. Trump is weirdly slippery and none of his outrageous, glaring faults hurt him. He will have to utterly destroy things for people to decide he's a problem at this point.
