Texas GOP Flirts With Secession

"During an hour-long fight in the middle of the Friday platform vote, secession advocates tried to force back into the platform language that party leaders had dropped the previous night. “The federal government has impaired our right of local self-government,” the proposal claimed, setting up the potential for a statewide vote so that Texas could reassert its right to return to its original status as an independent nation."

I don’t think Texas is going anywhere....it was probably a small group of upset Texans and even at that time didn’t represent the highest level of the Republican Party....

The Democrats are discussing this at a National Level and actually planning out the scenario.....
