26. It works by flipping the House & Senate...

and that work is long, difficult, & expensive, but in the end the only way short of armed revolution that we can depose a sitting POTUS. Better to get busy working on the 2018 midterms than to send Jill Stein your hard earned money so she can tilt at windmills. If you're going to donate money, donate it to the DNC - especially if Rep. Keith Ellison is tapped as the new chairperson.

As for the armed revolution, I wouldn't go around advocating that unless you want to wind up in jail. I don't think Orange Julius Caesar Trump will flinch at locking people up and throwing away the key if there's even a whiff of revolutionary uprising amongst the common folk.
