I was wondering about that. Because when it comes right down to it, Texas is NOT going to let the gubmint tit slide out its thankless mouth, nor do its leaders want to become instantly irrelevant to and derided by the other 49 states, nor do they have any intention of maintaining an instantly international border with New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana in addition to Mexico, nor do any of them want to leave Congress and lose their outsized legislative power over the other 49 states. All of that would be very bad for not only the state but its batshit insane leadership, and they don’t want that outcome at all.
So the true motivation here must be something very, very short of actual secession.
Jesus fucking christ I hope the dog catches the car. I so want to see these shitstirring mfrs panic.
