Wouldnt the Feds just block all roads into the state and basically choke off commerce into and out of the state?
So lets discuss this.

You see TX has already prepared for this.

They have their own power grid and plenty of gas and oil.

You see they are the only state not dependent on any other state for anything.

They aren't landlocked so they can trade with the rest of the world.

They have the 10th largest GDP in the world.

Why would the Feds block all the roads? The state has the right to secede regardless of what anyone has ever said. The Constitution isn't a suicide pact.

Each state is a sovereign entity under the Constitution. Is it simple no, is it possible yes.

TX is the do or die test.

Again, density of where you live makes a difference. If you live in the west you could have a blue state, but if the people are less dense then they are likely to live and let live.

The Declaration of Independence remedy is quite explicit and potentially painful.

It says the people can break the political bonds that bind them, well that is what the Texas National Movement does in a peaceful businesslike and constitutional manner.

The right are the ones trying to do this peaceful, the Left are the violent bully autocrats that want to prevent it.

Things will not move in a linear fashion right now it will be two steps forward and 10 steps back but it has legs none the less.

G-n-G

You're going to stay in New York State because some red states MAY get flipped in the future?
