I think one thing to consider, and I come from an Evangelical perspective, they see this as spiritual warfare. Principalities and powers are warring against the kingdom of god. To them, this isn’t just a political movement. It is a movement of faith. Faith in Trump as Gods anointed leader. There is nothing worse than a religious war.
Your writing is powerful. This particular piece elicited a strong feeling of foreboding. Russell Vought is a VERY DANGEROUS man. An architect of chaos, ruthlessness, and blind faith. Albert Einstein was like this, too. He insisted and was wrong when he asserted, despite contrary evidence, that the universe is static. Brilliant intellects, both men! But their premises were fundamentally flawed because they couldn't see past their religious indoctrination. A thought process that demands that "The Earth is flat, we're the center of the one and only universe, and this gives us the right to burn Giordano Bruno alive because his research says otherwise.
