There was a speaker at CPAC who just said that they’re trying to make the US a Christian nation by force, even if it means abandoning democracy.

MODERATORS
American Taliban, or a fascist theocracy. They believe that inequality based on some mythological identity is not just acceptable but morally correct.
Can someone please explain how this is any different from a county imposing Sharia law‽ Pretty sure the right is vehemently against that occuring. Why are their morals different, in the end it's trying to control through religion.

When was the last time people were in doubt about that? Conservatives have been trying to pass laws that affect everyone based on their confused religious moralism for decades. Things like “blue laws” (banning sales of alcohol on Sunday) are connected to Christians trying to impose their religious ideas on people. Or the idea that someone’s testimony or oath can’t be believed if not sworn on a bible.
Media keeps telling me how moderate Haley is.

Nice that people are starting to notice, I suppose.
Better late to the party than a no show I suppose.
Nah, no one could’ve seen it coming. There’s nothing we can do it, it’s caught everyone completely off guard.
