Oh, I know you aren't! I know this is simple curiosity from a non-Yank.
My belief is ultimately the "revolution is nigh" nutters are mostly talk, amplified by social media soapboxes that give extremist views similar platforms to more deeply-held ones. The former bell curve of amplitude is now a flat-topped histogram because naturally extremist views get more attention when their megaphone is the same size as centrist views, which it didn't use to be because discourse (print and broadcast) used to be edited by professional editors to appeal to the majority of the audience, who are centrist (that's how print and broadcast media make money -- i.e. Time magazine has more readers than Vietnamese Goat Fancier magazine). Now, all views are effectively unfiltered, and unedited, and all the microphones of similar decibel level (I can spread my views worldwide, instantaneously for free, vs. needing to have some gravitas or expertise to do so), so it makes it seem as if wingnut views are more common than they really are. The majority of Trump supporters, I think, are merely lifelong Republicans -- that they've had to rationaliz(s)e his behavio(u)r, personality, stupidity, amorality, etc. is a sad tale, but when it comes right down to it, very few are going to take up arms, kiss their loved ones and their jobs goodbye, buy an AK-47 and go on a "kill the Dems" spree. As I've noted, that's why very aggressive prosecution on January 6 was so important. They're going to moan and complain, but if Trump loses again, he'll be tarred by more and more as unelectable, especially the money backers, and my suspicion is they'll need to move on to a new kind of conservatism that will be more economic and less social.
One thing for sure -- they'll need a recession. So in other words, I expect US political discourse to return to some kind of balance. That it's imbalanced is in part of the nature of message purity -- in a fight to see who is most loyal to the cult of personality, like courtiers of old, they must twist themselves on the words and changing whims of a quite clearly mentally-imbalanced leader so as to avoid cognitive dissonance. Dax is an excellent example of one such sort, who has painted himself into a rhetorical corner so tightly he has to claim a liar who admitted he lied isn't lying. When Trump goes, it will free him (and actual, real conservatives, which he isn't) of having to defend him, and they can push the reset button. This, of course, is what happened with Nixon, and Hoover for that matter. The GOP will get their chance to reconstruct their ideals when -- inevitably -- the economy suffers enough for even many Democrats to demand change. Errors abroad can influence this feeling too. History is replete with these shifts on both sides -- Hoover to FDR, Nixon/Ford to Carter and then to Reagan; on a smaller stage, Bush to Clinton, etc.
Now as for me, I will never support any political creature who supported or excused Trump, ever, until I die. I will only support those that renounced him day one. There will be many who will "betray" him once he has no power to hurt them any longer (i.e. they can't get primaried by a cult member or one who poses as such). But that day will bring about some re-balance to the pendulum, as it ever has. I am hopeful that day will be a few months from now, or at least there will be progress made to putting him out to pasture for good. I am skeptical it will be so declarative, but one can hope.
