Martial law in those swing states is a pretty sure fire way to wake them up.....
If you look at what Lincoln did in 1860 - revoking habeas corpus and jailing Congress, there have been some pretty wild times in our history.
There has not been such a danger to our Republic since the Civil War, but this time over 1/2 of our populace are complete idiots regarding history or civics.
Waking up the masses is necessary - it falls just short of actual war against our domestic enemies.
