If they are expelled then they are no longer a state, are they?

Specifically, what part of "without its Consent" don't you understand? You think it's ok for a state to be kicked out against it's will, but wrong to leave voluntarily?

Specifically, what part of 'no longer a state' don't you understand? Only states are guaranteed representation in the Congress. If Massachusetts is expelled then they are not in the Union and cannot demand representation in Congress. Where is that forbidden?

You think it's ok for a state to be kicked out against it's will, but wrong to leave voluntarily?

And you think it is OK to leave without the consent of the other states, but not OK for the other states to expel one without its consent. Where is either one forbidden?
