This blog post title from Right Wing Watch is about as good summary as it gets:

Trump ‘Prayer Warriors’ Ask God To ‘Fight’ Chief Justice John Roberts If He ‘Refuses To Bow To You’

Although the first paragraph helps explain:

Intercessors for America, a pro-Trump network that is closely aligned with White House aide Paula White, published and promoted a blog post Tuesday calling on prayer for Chief Justice John Roberts and asking God to “fight against him however You deem necessary” if Roberts “refuses to bow to you.”

There’s no question that they are part of the dangerous network of organizations dedicated to the overthrow of the United States, and have been for quite awhile. After all, calling upon God to alter the thinking of someone influential is emphatically not an element of democracy.

But what can you do about it?

Outlawing would be neither democratic nor effective. The culture of victimhood, which is the universal tie for these groups, would simply make them stronger.

So the only real option is to ask them just how well those prayers are working, and where they get off in order God about. Intrepid interlocutors might ask why they hate freedom so much, since any invocation of the Divine to change someone’s mind – in this case, violently – is an inarguable violation of freedom.
