If the Democrats do indeed take the House and the Senate, will that clip Trump's wings, so to speak?
Trump has asserted a rather broad understanding of executive power, and the Republican congress has let him do it.
A Dem-controlled congress could and would push back; Trump is likely to continue to assert his executive power, and it would end up in the Supreme Court (again) on a regular basis.

And one way a Dem-controlled Congress could attempt to do that is by reasserting congressional power of the purse.
