We need a solution to this, because honestly the US just lost its democracy.
It's 1933.
Any ideas on ways out of this?

Can you elaborate on how the US has lost its democracy? The democracy voted him in, in 4 years it will vote someone else in. Unless you genuinely believe that Trump has any power to change that.
Do you know Germany was democratic until they voted for Hitler?
That's an insult to democracies everywhere. You can't seriously draw a comparison between the US today and pre-hitler Germany. Not all democracies are equal, as modern-day Russia proves.
