What impresses me is that he's still young enough that he could make a return to politics years from now. Few prime ministers have had it as rough as him, so using his added age and wisdom, he could potentially use his experience to mop the floor with his opposition.

Well, his father did it. The problem with him trying to make a comeback in a few years is the 'he quit when the country needed leadership the most' narrative. That will be used by his competition within the party and by the opposing parties.

I don't think that will be the biggest hurdle. His massive policy failures will likely be the biggest hurdle.
