Ok, let’s use Texas as an example. Texas Secedes and becomes the Republic of Texas AGAIN. Years later, liberals, the equivalent of rats in a sewer, infiltrate into Texas and vote it in to oblivion like they are doing California.

Until the foregoing question is answered, I don’t support secession but do support the Convention of States and strict enforcement of existing Constitutional Amendments and most particularly the Tenth Amendment.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Original wording of the Tenth Amendment

"the Tenth Amendment:" "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Yeppers, you put your finger right on the heart of the problem.. States Rights. Some strong Governors (plural) need to step up and demand that the FED get the heck out of things they have no business doing..

My idea—for years has been the following—1. an event happens like the arrest of Trump for Treason or some other charge, he flees to Texas (or Florida) The federals demand his surrender. The Governor of Florida says no. 2. They send troops under Milie to seize the traitor Trump and his children. They are beaten back. The New Supreme court (15 members) say its OK. States led by Texas raise the Bonnie Blue Flag and leave the union. More states follow and appoint Trump as the true president, States form a new government—the Constitutional States of America (CSA) with a new flag—new laws—closed borders. New courts. form a new army and navy. Federalists get UN support and support from China (Russia stays neural in my scenario). and the North invades Texas from California/Nevada. Three years and 4 million lives later the Red States win.
