Perhaps some counties could secede from the blue states and join a red state. Look at the counties which voted for Trump. Many more trump counties that are red, than blue. Even the miserable dem run cities have red areas...they might be able to secede from their city and join a red county. This will take time to sort out. I believe there would only be central parts of cities left in the blue column. The blues would be surrounded. Build the walls and just let them rot. Better to let excised diseased tissue die.

With Big Tech relocating en masse to TX, how long will be it a law-abiding, pro-constitution state?

A pretty long time considering Big Tech is moving here to get away from the communist prog infesting the states they are getting away from.

Convince all the surrounding states with Texas as the hub.

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

They won’t do it. No one believes they will and that lack of a deterrence is why thr country is on the brink

Fascinating development. The Republic is dead. Long live the Republic!

I will definitely move to a seceding state, and I will leave my immobile property in flames.

Don’t kid yourself that all, or even a majority, of the Californians flooding into Texas are conservatives. They’re mostly liberals and will remains liberals.

It was agreed to at the time Congress admitted Texas as a state. It’s the only state that has the right to do this. At the time it was admitted Texas could have split into five states but once it was admitted as a single entity is stays a single state unless Congress gives its approval - Article IV, Section 3.

Well screw that. If lawlessness goes on within this nation & no consequences, then go for it & F--k this by gone country.

“...BTW, the Mississippi River is the central hub for commerce in the mid west....”

Has been for quite awhile.
That’s why the civil war siege of Vicksburg was so important at that time.

“..Lincoln made it clear no state can secede....”

Lincoln is long since dead.
With what’s happening now, it appears the Constitution is too.

Even more so now. Back then it took a good while for goods to travel down that lane. Now it takes a day or two.

Its time for people who still love this country to stand up.
