The End Game for the Trump Era

It’s hard to disagree with most of this.

That said, how long the damage will last is an open question.  If Trump can be removed from office and then totally discredited with criminal prosecution, there is a reasonable chance that a) congressional Republicans will try to pretend none of this ever happened, b) a large percentage of his base will recant their loyalty, and c) virtually everyone around the globe will breathe a huge sigh of relief and let the world move on.
