5. Guys, here's another quote from the same article:

Loony-toons references to Gettysburg and the Civil War:

Mr. Wallnau, who wrote a book about Mr. Trump called “God’s Chaos Candidate,” is an influential figure in a right-wing movement called the New Apostolic Reformation and a leading proponent of Seven Mountains Dominionism, which holds that Christians should take control of the seven secular “mountains”: education, religion, family, business, government, arts and media.

At Friday’s rally, Mr. Wallnau likened Mr. Mastriano to a Union Army colonel who held off a Confederate assault during the Civil War. (Ironically, Mr. Mastriano has come under fire from Mr. Shapiro and dozens of veterans for appearing in a Confederate Army uniform for a faculty photo when he was a professor at the U.S. Army War College during the 2013-14 academic year.)

“I love this state. I love this man,” Mr. Wallnau said of Mr. Mastriano.

He's conflating the Civil War with some kind of military showdown of liberals vs. MAGAt-crazies.
