And, the just gasp of democracy happens with the stroke of a pen.
Even if Trump is somehow removed from office, it will take a strong person to give up the power gained. The USA can no longer pretend it’s a democracy.

Congress has been giving the executive more and more power every administration for a long, long time. Any time the executive actually wields this massive amount of power they have been given by Congress, people rightfully worry about how strong the executive has gotten.
It has long been time for Congress to restrict the executive. And I hope everyone remembers this when their preferred party is in power and demands the same as your preferred party is, clearly, not the only party that will be in power.
