Inspired from previous solution and using some javascript code injection it is also possibile to first inject React into the page, and then to fire a click event on that page elements.

injc("https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/15.1.0/react.min.js",() => injc("https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/15.1.0/react-dom.min.js",() => {

class ReactInjected extends React.Component{
  simulateClick(e) {
    e.click()
  }
  render(){
    return 
 console.log('click injection')}>
      hello
      
  }
}
ReactDOM.render(, document.getElementById('app'))

} ))
