Its reality. Ive provided the resolutions the states passed when they ratified the US Constitution showing it to be the case. Youve provided no evidence to refute it.
The evidence is really self-evident - if these signing statements had any force of law they would have availed themselves of it. None of the rebelling states pointed to these statements and declared this so-called right. None.
And that is because even the slavers knew that there is no “right of secession” - especially not a unilateral right. The only way out of the union is through mutual accord of ALL the states or by revolution and the force of arms.
