So if Texas were to secede:

- Republicans would lose 40 electoral votes

- Republicans would lose 25 seats in the House and 2 seats in the Senate

- Thereby giving Democrats a lock on the White House and Congress

But sure, y’all go on ahead and secede.

And to be clear - I am a native Texan and don’t want to see anyone seceding

But let’s just say these modern day confederates haven’t quite thought through the consequences of their agitation

They don't plan to just quietly leave, though, even were that possible (it isn't).

They plan to use their secession attempt to instigate a civil war to take over the whole country.

They can go but they’ve got to leave Houston with us. It’s big as a state anyway.

Texas would also lose all federal funding and as far as I know are nowhere near self sufficient enough to manage without it and what would now be international tariffs for anything coming from the states.

I read that Texans would also lose their social security. Screw that, I'd just move to the United States (maybe back to IL) and just maintain my foreign vacation house in TX.

And when Texas busses immigrants across their border into the states it will be an international crime. Now that war I would support.

Saw on here, earlier, what was ostensibly a repost from a Texas secession message board asking if they'd still receive their Social Security checks if Texas seceded. I mean ... it may have been a joke, but it wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't, either.
