A reasonable prediction, at this point. And that base is the majority of the Republican party.

Best case scenario--a plurality of them decide further trashing the country is more inimical to their own and the national interest than continuing the "deep state" hoax, and so go "dormant" until the next authoritarian populist lights their fire.

But that still leaves millions ready to break whatever they can in rage and a very broken Republican party--just as the never-Trumpers predicted back in 2016.
