I think in this video are some good ideas that are still within the democratic range, but call for a political revolution:

However, if these fail too, someone has to stop him at some point. The US political system has failed. It provided a criminal, mentally unstable moron with the power and tools to end the world as we know it. And he’s well under way, I might add. At this point I don’t think anything should be off the table. It’d be insane to let someone start WWIII just bc he has been given formal power and “there’s nothing we can do”. Of course things can be done. At the end of the day presidents are made-up constructs that can and should be terminated if that’s what’s needed to save millions of lives. The US need a new system anyway after this. So they might as well terminate it now. How this will look like? I don’t know. I’ve never started a revolution, but happy to support if needed. But, first and foremost the people of the US have to take charge of course.
