Has this idea become a real possible answer?

Succession isn't legal, so no? Texas is the only state with a legal case for succession because Texas was annexed into the US via treaty. Part of that treaty included our right leave. Many argue post civil war we lost that right.

The solution is total annihilation of the left as enemies of the state.

GOP has control of every branch of Govt and the Supreme Court. We can interpret law to fit our cause. The time is now to mobilize the military and start the purge of scum from this nation

It doesn't bruh. It explicitly puts us on equal footing:
quote:

The Republic of Texas, acting in conformity with the wishes of the people and every department of its government, cedes to the United States all its territories, to be held by them in full property and sovereignty, and to be annexed to the said United States as one of their Territories, subject to the same constitutional provisions with their other Territories.

So you'd love a government that can't issue currency or put together a military? There's a reason the government had to start over after 9 years.

And those should be about the only responsibility/function of the federal government. Commerce and Defense.

The Articles of Confederation gave neither of those powers.

Never said it did. I never mentioned the Articles. I only mentioned what powers the founding fathers granted the federal government.

Use the GOP controlled govt and courts to make it lawful.

What is and isn't lawful can change any day. Law isn't a natural thing that just exists, it is created and changed by man. We could make murder lawful tomorrow if we so chose to
