I suspect you are right. The problem is an awful lot of people want to stick with the unraveling mindset, and Trump has sort of encouraged it. For the individual, hooray! Forget the common good, huzzah! As a result, it seems a little early for the counting chickens phase.
As unsettled as things are, handing out the political equivalent of Ritalin has to be popular. I'm not sure popular is enough, though. We still live in tribal times, and the tribes are restless.
