Pro tip: the many who desire a Christian authoritarian state are being bamboozled into a strictly warlord-style medieval Libertarian Utopia where local corruption reigns supreme. This of course has no bounds and really no rules so anarchy is the result in the near term.
There is really no modern analogy of what is to come should Republicans get what they want- some sort of Americanized weird hybrid of the Balkans, Putin’s Russia and Boss Hogg.
