Just about every option you can imagine will be extralegal -- including him serving out his whole term. You can stop hoping for a "the system worked" outcome.

My money is on the military placing him under house arrest and compelling him to sit still while the 25th Amendment is invoked. Yeah, that's basically a coup, but you really think he'd play nice and be harmless while impeachment proceedings dragged on for months?
