After 2022, unless Republicans reclaim the House and or the Senate, both of which are looking less and less likely as time goes on, the party will turn on Trump the way they should have turned on him after January 6th.
Don't forget that Nancy Pelosi's January 6th investigation will be holding hearings for at least the rest of this legislative session, and issuing their report in the run-up to the Republican primaries. Instead of the political theatre we watched throughout the Obama and Trump administrations, you're going to see a REAL investigation, being run by people who want to make sure nothing like it ever happens again.
Last but not least, we have plea deals with at least 3 of the leaders of the Proud Boys who were hired as Roger Stone's "bodyguards" during the planning stages insurrection. The same Roger Stone who was the liason between the Trump Campaign and WikiLeaks. And General Flynn's brother helping to keep the National Guard sitting in their buses for 5 hours.
I'm really interested to hear what these Proud Boys have to say at their conspiracy trials, next year.
Kevin McCarthy really shot himself in the foot walking out on that investigation. Under the first proposal that was voted down, Republicans had veto power over any witnesses Democrats want to call. Those Pentagon appointments that Trump made right after the election was called for Biden, made everybody curious at the time. What was Trump doing with these appointments?
The decision pushes out Trump campaign alumni like Corey Lewandowski and David Bossie, who were handed unpaid Pentagon advisory positions late last year.

After January 6th, it was fairly evident what he was doing.
