Trump doesn't really have a chance in the midterms: his popularity is likely to be underwater a week or two after his inauguration. So I don't think he is going to sweat them, and he will try to cram in as much in 2 years before he basically becomes a lameduck. Ideally, he will focus his effort on settling scores, spending his hard and soft capital on dumb stuff, like a full congressional hearing on Hunter Biden or something else. He could also executive order a bunch of heavy tariffs early, which should put the whole political establishment in damage control for the 2 years that he can do anything. If he has really smart advisors that he actually listens too, he could potentially do a lot more, but I don't think that will come to pass.
