I think analysts are making way too much of what this going to mean in the midterm.

I'm just happy that checks and balances appear to still be checking and balancing.

Hope Trump doesn't try to amp up his executive power with a war.
Yeah, since we got this out of the way so quick into Trump's presidency, it gives a lot of time for his supporters to shake it off and pretend like it wasn't as bad as it was made out to be, and everyone else will have all the time in the world to forget about it. If this had happened later on then it might have had more of an effect on Trump's re-election plans, but I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't nearly as meaningful four years from now.
