Only if you take Idaho and Utah as well.

It would be fucking hysterical of the US built a huge, impenetrable wall along the US Texas border leaving Texas on the Mexico side.

Sorry, Mexico.

What's that Mr Trump likes to say? "If x you won't even have a country!" Where x = "you secede"

California?... The bluest of blues?

Amoxtli OP ,

Californians have their own identity and within California you have independence movements within the state away from California.

Drusas ,

California is huge. Multiple cultures exist within the one state.

That thing is me of the year again? The pre summer, heat is here, hurricanes aren't yet but Texas wants to secede time of year that stops once a cat4 pops up?

Ok bye

Ahh yes, the contiguous block of states formed by Texas, Alaska, California, Lousiana, New Hampshire, and Florida. A successful basis for a new country...

And don't forget to take your share of the national debt when you go.

I'm curious how Texas will handle "natural" disaster without proper tax structure and federal funding.

londos , to Texas in Texas Secessionsts win GOP backing for independence vote: 'Major step'

Is Texas going to pay for the additional wall?

Someones give me a little pros and cons list if they secede. What do they offer the country?

MisterD ,

No aid required next time their state freezes

tiredofsametab ,

cons - they have no legal right to secede and the US government won't let them. It would not be pretty.

mojofrododojo ,

A fuckton of federal spending - F35s in DFW, bell textron helos, missiles and other stuff; Fort Hood and Fort Bliss are GIGANTIC, there's defense spending all over the state. It's not staying in The Fuckjikistan of Texas

Please someone get me out of this state before it descends into literal chaos

Starb3an ,

That's the reason I'm working so hard to get my degree. More prospects elsewhere when I have a degree. Hopefully all the way out of the US.

That's some pretty good motivation!

Breve , to Texas in Texas Secessionsts win GOP backing for independence vote: 'Major step'

If Texas left the US, wouldn't that be a massive blow to the federal Republican party losing all those electoral college votes and seats in the legislature?

Crashumbc ,

Very few people of above average intelligence, have ever accused the GOP of having common sense..
