Oh im sure theyd be able to defend themselves just fine. The nukes arent a threat to them in this scenario its that our governments would be saying we will kill all the innocent human civilians if you fuck with us, and the Aliens dont want to see our government genocide us all. So the challenge for them would be how to dismantle the current ruling class without getting a ton of us regular humans killed in the process.

I think CyborgMarx raises a really good point on that front. If they just deposed our rulers themselves it would create a sense of resentment of them, and them doing so would almost certainly collapse society, if there are hypothetical aliens watching earth they might have concluded that interference would cause more harm than good.
