Over 2-3 decades, I would hope.

Over the next few years, no.

There's the impeachment coming up. Then, if we have the courage and tenacity to press for accountability, Trump and his minions should be spending a lot of time in a lot of courtrooms over the next few years.

Everything that Republicans do in trying to salvage their party (if it doesn't finally split in two) and trying to win elections is going to be framed in terms of either running away from Trump, or embracing his toxic legacy.
