Here's my dream which could happen if we weren't so stupid, and lazy. We take back both houses in 2018. This will stop any further deliberate harm to the weakest amongst us. Then institute impeachment proceedings. Once he's removed he will face a long list of criminal charges due to his financial dealings over the years. Mr. Trump will be the first former President even to sit in prison.
2020 we take back the White House. Then begins the night of long knives against those who cannot, and will not show empathy to anyone, but their bank accounts begins. Many trials many convictions. The rightwing echo chamber will howl Coup! Persecution!.
...they'll be right.
The Republican Party will not be let out of it's box for another century. This because we saw what they tried to do when they were mistakenly let out. They'll 'never' have the White House again, and won't have a majority in either house for the next 100 years.
Our memories will be long.
Nice vengeful dream. Sadly it won't happen The dems will be extinguished from both Houses because yes they are 'that' stupid. Trump gets another term. The Pence gets two terms as well. By the 2030's we'll be a 2nd world nation like Brazil. This with the homes of the rich, and powerful guarded by their private armies. There will be no middle class. There will be a handful of insanely rich, and hoards of desperate poor...with nothing whatever in between.
Sweet dreams.

I doubt there will be a Republican Party in 100 years; maybe not even ten years.

I shoulda mentioned - when "we" take back the White House: does that mean Hillary and us, along with her other billionaire chums? I am so looking forward to that.
The Dems will lose again, even if the Stingy Grinches (viz., Republicans) completely fuck up and offer nothing for candidates but chopper liver with dog turds. They (the Dems) are incapable of learning from their mistakes, which they adamantly insist do not exist.
I wouldn't be surprised if we wind up with a General in charge, governing obliquely or openly.

"...General in charge, governing obliquely or openly."
This would be an improvement.
it's 'so bad' a military coup would be welcome. I see now how Coups were actually popular. At least at first. However when not just the political opposition, but your mailman your barber the ice cream truck guys start turning up hanging from lamp posts with signs around their necks.
Well then it's too late.
