List the concessions you want. List the corrections to the system that you would like to see.
Oh boy, I'd need to write a proper essay for that.

I'm not convinced that the train is going off the rails. MOST people just want to live their lives normally. Trains going off the rails disrupt the flow of money and peace.
The economic devastations of the covid crisis are not nearly felt to their full extent yet. The inflation caused by the excessive money printing will become a problem one way or the other, even if it remains confined to asset price inflation and doesnt spill over to consumer prices. The left dominating the discourse over climate change countermeasures will lead to absolutely devastating consquences. Multiculturalism replacing assimilation will lead to an ever more fragmented and unsolidaric society. Corporate Democrats being validated by their fluke win in 2020 instead of receiving their long-overdue reckoning means that the necessary correction of America's rising inequality is blocked; most of their policies will even exacerbate it. And so on and on.
The bottom line imho is the following: all actors of American society, left, right, downscale, upscale are all constantly adding more and more fuel to the fire. At some point, it has to blow up in your country's face. Anyone thinking that Trump was the only actor adding fuel or wielding a box of matches, and that therefore everything will be fine and dandy again once he's gone, is horribly mistaken if you ask me.
