They want to secede AND keep the military bases, US military production, Houston Space Center, and US tax dollars flowing in. When they realize that secession will take away all those jobs and all that money, they back down.
Texas independence is nothing but wishful thinking on the part of a certain kind of Texan. They think that because they were once an “independent” nation they have special status. Like Hawaii, in the comment above. Both are wrong. The Civil War clearly proved that you can check in any time you like, but you can never leave. Welcome to the Hotel United States. What the Constitution has joined together let no man tear asunder.

I would vote for that. (not a texan) it would rid us of ted cruz, abbott, paxton, gohmert, and other assorted odious toads.

Wasn’t secession on the table already, once? That, and Hawaiian “sovereignty?”

Hmmm letting the Lonestar State going it alone ? I’ve got no problem with that as long as they promise not to come back

Mexico is concerned about the effect of having that third-world nation on its northern border.

I just want them to go already.

Perhaps the use of TNT at precise places to push Texas completely off the continental United States and out into the Gulf of Mexico. (IF only)

If at first you don’t secede, try and try again.

Mr. Wiggly: He is in the 1st panel yucking it up over Preston’s asinine remarks. Everybody knows Texas won’t secede. They would lose big time.
