Do you really think Texas is the entirety of America?
No. I’m just saying that if Texas seceded, it wouldn’t be a quick, low casualty fight.
It wouldn’t be a fight at all. They can just “sanction” them. It wouldn’t take long for their infrastructure to shut down, their economy to collapse etc.
There is no path to secession for a single state without support from the rest of the country. 250 years ago America likely wouldn’t have been able to split from Britain without help from France.
Lol, yes. Yes, it would.
Nonsense. It wouldn't even be a fight. Texas isn't self-sufficient; to the contrary its economy and infrastructure are intimately tied into every aspect of the US system. All we'd have to do is take out Texas's shitty power grid, shut down all access to banking, close its borders and everything in the state would grind to a halt within days. At that point we'd just wait it out. What's Texas going to do? Launch a counterattack on the rest of the US? Cut me a husk. You aren't being even remotely realistic.
