Congress is full of people who will and can cash out the moment the wind blows the wrong direction, so I wouldn't put too much emphasis on what they're capable of. They'll do what is expedient for their own necks in the end. Each session their political will has gotten weaker. And right now, Republicans have control and no real reason to risk their own hide going against the base where they'll be accused of trying to stop his agenda.
