It might be exactly the opposite.  The DECLAS always suspended hanging over their heads, is a powerful weapon, a powerful motivator to behave and move in line and stay in line.  Once you have dropped the bomb, you have nothing left to threaten them with (except prison).  I think we are going to see a kinder, more gentle and more reasonable LEFT going into the future.  Perhaps we shall see some GOOD things getting passed PRONTO???  That will be the test of their true repentance.  However, If we continue in this lame duck situation, where nothing of Trump's MAGA agenda gets passed,  then you KNOW some other nefarious plan(s) is afoot, like more plans to bump off Trump.
