It's unfortunately likely that he will get book deals and wingnut welfare in the aftermath of this.
I can't see his star lasting very long, though. He's an unpleasant, socially incompetent egotist with a nasty temper.
AFAICT, no one who has had much to do with him can stand him.
In a few years, he will have annoyed the wingnuts in charge, and they will move on to a newer, more photogenic, less moronic hero.
At that point, I'm willing to bet he pulls another stunt to try to regain his hero status. Let's hope if it does play out this way, he's the only one who gets hurt next time.
On edit: I hear he's begging for donations. How much you wanna bet he blows everything he gets within a year, two at the most?
