accomplished over another 8 years is guaranteed to give the average member of Congress a new perspective. At least somewhat--most of the ultraconservatives they've been electing are specifically not very smart people, a slow-learner group, if at all.

This reminds me, though, of: "Obama, during Fallon's popular "Thank You Notes" segment: "Thank you, Congress, for spending eight years wishing you could replace me with a Republican," as Trump's picture appeared on screen. "Or, to put it another way, how do you like me now?"
