Republicans talking about secession
What do you think? I wouldn’t miss Texas, but I do enjoy Grapefruit League baseball in Florida. Trump could be President of the CSA.

They are nuts.
First problem is that most of the Blue States are the ones that pay the bills for the Red States which are going to be in a world of hurt without all the federal dollars pouring into those States.
And news flash, if you decide to leave the United States you don't get to keep property of the United States just because it is in your State, unless your new country is going to socialize all the property of a now foreign country.

I’d like to see the proposed border. Trump would have a lot of walls to build.Trapper Gus wrote:PennSpartan wrote:What do you think? I wouldn’t miss Texas, but I do enjoy Grapefruit League baseball in Florida. Trump could be President of the CSA.

Shortsighted ...
One of the reasons we are a world power is that we have ports on the two major oceans and a bunch of other places.
Re: Republicans talking about secession
We have ports all over the world. And nukes don’t need water. The south is a drain on taxes. Dump them.Trapper Gus wrote:PennSpartan wrote:

The whole is bigger than the parts.

If someone doesn’t want to be here, I say let them go. Sometimes a divorce is better than constant fighting.Trapper Gus wrote:PennSpartan wrote:

The basic definition of self-government is constant fighting.
Only an authoritarian government is "peaceful".

Re: Republicans talking about secession
White Republicans are moving quickly to return to Jim Crow style laws to limit voting, really limiting democracy because they know census data.
According to the US Census 2045 white Americans will make up 49.7% of the population.

Sad thing is that with their myopic focus of skin color they don't realieze that Hispanics are mostly Catholic and are very conservative on abortion ...
Re: Republicans talking about secession
I would like to see Texas job and economic data if they wanted to leave.
From the top they would lose the civilian jobs and overall economic impact of the 15 Military bases.
They would lose all Federal monies for K-12 and higher Ed.
Lose NASA and departments like the FDA, Homeland Security would set up in Oklahoma to keep the border between Free Texas state and the US secure.
Sort of like the Yuppers wanting their own state. Take away MTU, NMU and it’s mostly retirees and a lot of folks on Social Security disability.

Re: Republicans talking about secession
Ted Cruz has gone total Tucker Carlson. Talking out of his ass for his base.
Say anything for effect and some folks will believe it.
They can have the facilities but personnel and equipment assigned will go elsewhere. Elsewhere being the dozens of states in line for all those military and civilian payroll checks.
PS
I forgot about all the Federal jobs in the IRS and Social Security offices in the state.

Why should he do that when he can lie about what is going on and people will send him millions and millions of US dollars?
