I don’t see it that way. If the American government violates the constitution (which indeed it already has), the people and states have a right to leave the union.

If everyone thought like you did, the lower 48 would turn pernanently blue.

I am not sure that would be the best defense of the Constitution.....in fact, I am sure it wouldn’t be.

You are exactly correct. When the government takes our liberties, it no longer honors the Constitution, and thus, we are no longer bound to honor that government. The secession question was only answered the way it was in 1865 because Lee got too ambitious at Gettysburg.
