I didn’t say there was a right to secede. There is NO prohibition thereof.
You believe that is a war worthy point?

States and localities are required to follow federal law by the Supremacy Clause. It was not universally assumed that secession was constitutional.

I’d say that secession was a subject for consideration by the courts, but Jefferson Davis thought it was a war-worthy point.
