Colorado supreme court ruled that they can take Trump off the ballot, now it looks like California is trying to do that as well. Meanwhile, republican states are threatening to retaliate in kind.
This seems unprecedented for US, does anybody know what happens in this scenario?
Theocratic law, like the evangelicals have been trying to establish
There is no theocratic consensus. They would turn on each other instantly.
Do you believe that Evangelicals would work alongside Catholics? Hell, there are so many flavors of evangelism alone that would never work together.
Catholics would have their set of ideals. Mormons and Latter Day Saints would have a different set. Evangelicals would have another. Protestants would also make up a sizeable majority. Who gets to decide the theocracy?
For example, abortion, over 60% of Republicans and Christians were hostile to removing Roe v Wade. How would a theocratic leadership ever hold anything together without instantly devolving into infighting?
I mean, the Air Force is run by an Evangelical cult. It doesn't feel like a huge stretch to say that the guys with the guns (and flying machines that create tons of Good Troops LOOOOOOOOL) will end up in charge in this scenario.
By that note, the vast majority of the Navy is Protestant, and the Marine Corp is highly Catholic.
I would place more money on the Navy being in change in a Junta scenario if I’m honest. Plus, which branch is going to say no to the guys sitting in nuclear submarines? The air force with their aging bombers?
The Navy is also twice the size of the Air Force in sheer size, and they operate the worlds second largest Air Force funnily enough. Plus the navy is one of the few competent branches that would probably fare well in a combat scenario, unlike the Air Force which is used to dropping a few bombs on civilians and not facing any opposition.
