The government isn't a single person or even consistent entity. Different people and groups are vying for control via control of the government. Some people distrusting the current government and others supporting it is pretty much what politicians want (it's also the natural result of politics).
I don't think this will change much when it comes to governing. Hopefully there will be change with how the police work in the US, but the political play is going to stay the same. Some people might just end up being switched out.
Just think of it this way: almost all of the rioting/protesting is happening in blue areas. They have a Democratic mayor, police chief, state representatives etc. The police are under the control of these local officials, not federal officials. At the same time, many of protestors are angry at Trump and other Republicans on a federal level. So who do they vote for to enact change? Voting for those same Democrats in local ejections keeps the status quo, but at the same time they don't like the opposition (Republicans). They can elect a different federal president, but that isn't going to change the police issue as long as the local status quo remains.
All in all, I would say that politically not much is going to change.
