Texas Republicans want to secede from the Union.

SECEDE_BUMPER__27801.1352239933.1280.1280Let them secede, and let them take a few states with them.

Good Christ, wouldn’t you think Texas lawmakers have more important issues to discuss?

Guess not.

  1. Let them secede, and let all the bigots move there. It’s a big state. Maybe they could elect Trump, so we could rid ourselves of that nut, too.

          1. I would make the New America (without Texas) great again!

            (The other same comment was not a mistake because I don’t make those. It was intentionally put in an unrelated comment because I was making a point. Plus I’m smart and really, really rich, and am lying.)

  2. Sorry. Texas cannot arbitrarily secede. It’s impossible without “consent of the states.”
    Samuel P. Chase, from the 1867 SCOTUS majority opinion resolving Texas v. White:

    When Texas became one of the United States, she entered into an indissoluble relation. The union between Texas and the other States was as complete, as perpetual, and as indissoluble as the union between the original States. There was no place for reconsideration or revocation, except through revolution or through consent of the States.

    Secession isn’t possible. Only rebellion. And we know how well that went last time.
    Besides…they owe us money. Dine and dash is not an option.

    The best Texas could do, under its annexation agreement with the United States, is to split into separate units, like Sonny describes in this clip from Bernie. But they would still be part of The Union. We’re stuck with them. They’re stuck with us.

    Grow up, Texan GOP.
