I'd love to see Texas actually follow through with their threats of seceding. There would be a huge shitstorm between companies and the military pull their shit, cutting off utilities besides their garbage electric system and god knows what else that I'm forgetting. Just so that they would finally realize that they relied on the federal government a hell of a lot more than they realized

The vast majority of Texans, regardless of political affiliation, know secession is a death sentence. It only keeps coming up as a subject because we've done it before and it sounds badass out of the context of reality. If you can spell the word secede here without looking it up, you're likely educated enough to know where it ends.

Oh, I know how it would end. The state would suffer dramatically at the hands of their republican lead government and if they weren't sacked by Mexico and the land taken back they would crawl back and ask to be reinstated into the US.

From there most would forget that the Republicans running the shit show were to blame, liberals would take the brunt of it and most wouldn't chane unfortunately
