It will finally convince some that Donald Trump is a liability, and not an asset. If half the party turns on him because of this, some normalcy may be restored.
It’s an absolute disaster for the Republican Party. The schism that already exists (Trump Republicans vs Actual Republicans) is going to solidify with the later group growing larger and bolder as Trump becomes more and more irrelevant. The resultant internecine squabbling is going to create more opportunities for Democrats.
It wouldn’t surprise me to see either a formal split in the GOP or a whole raft of non-Trump republicans switch to independent.
