The Constitution mandates that the federal government guarantee that states have "a republican form of government." In such a government, the law is made by the people through their representatives. Not by judges. Just my coin in the fountain, but I think this would be grounds for Trump coming into a state and straightening things out.
I once read a pulp mystery-action story written in the 30s about a state ("New Cornwall") that went full dictatorship. Lots of daring-do in fighting it back. I think it might have featured "Operator 5."
Edit; I found it: "Blood Reign of the Dictator": (Vol. 4,2; May 1935) In the fictional state of New Cornwall, Ursus Young has become governor through bribes, cajolery, and executions by secret police. Operator No. 5 fights to stop him, but Young becomes president, dissolves the Constitution, and sets up a guillotine on the Washington Mall to destroy his enemies! His next victim will be Diane Elliot, Jimmy Christopher's lady love! Text includes footnotes about actual impeachment proceedings and their outcome.
And this could have been contemporary: "Legions of the Death-Master": (Vol. 4,4; July 1935) Death strikes down the champions of law and order as mobs wander the street spreading hatred in an insidious scheme to decimate the nation from inside.
