    Real answer? All political systems are designed by us and can be discarded by us. Law is just a mandate for society enforced at the point of a gun. Under normal (non-US) circumstances, using our system, you could run impeachment through Congress, but Congress and the federal judiciary are completely corrupt and in on the same agenda. As a society we can just stop using this system - the only deciding factor is military and police force being on our side or theirs. That’s why the military is such a rigid hierarchy, to try to make it an impossibility for the rule of this government to topple. But all social systems have human free will as their greatest flaw. Be prepared to explain to MAGAs and gun nuts how Trump is implementing Maoist totalitarianism with capitalist overtones, and how the government is the most un-American thing of all. This is a game of changing minds, which is how division among the people sowed the collapse of the society.
