The only way I see an actual Civil War starting is if it is initiated at the State level. Say Texas declares its independence, what other states would join in or would they just wait to see how Texas faired on their own?

I think the window of time is short for this to happen. Say Biden wins, Texas would have to declare itself independent while Trump is still president so that Trump could sign off on it. If not by the time Trump leaves office, the government will move all weapon systems out of Texas and other Red States, once Biden is in office, just so these states don't have the ability to wage war.

In what world do you see Texas declaring independence haha. The state is about to turn blue and render all future Presidential elections pointless and boomers are still acting like nothing has changed.

South Carolina nullified Federal laws in 1828 and 1832 and threatened secession both times. Then we were the first to secede in 1860. I'd say we'd join.

Texas won’t leave. We’ve had just enough invasive species from California who have just enough sway to prevent this from gaining traction. Oklahoma is more redass than we are now.

Texas? secede? LOLOLOL! How do you think that Houston, Dallas-FW, San Antonio, and Austin would vote on secession? The economic engine of Texas is not gonna want to secede.

No state is seceding anywhere anytime soon. The very idea is ludicrous as no states have most people on one "side" or the other.

Why would you want to secede?

Make them bitches leave. They promised to move if Trump was elected. Why can't we hold them accountable? Why aren't Mexicans threatening to leave if Trump is re-elected. In addition, why are those racist frickers avoiding Mexico, central America, and northern Africa to escape evil whitey.

Libs know they couldn't survive outside of EU, Canada or Australia... You know the other white countries.

Dude, I'm sorry to say but New Mexico, Missouri, Florida, (Probably Louisiana) and Virginia would not take place in this.

It will take full economic collapse. What will probably happen is something similar to the Soviet Union. It will happen slowly but eventually a new super power will emerge, another WW, and the US Backed allies will be on the losing end. Our country will be dismantled, the resources taken, and the rest left for ruin. However, the idea of America will always live. Give me and fellow patriots(probably our great grandkids) the most barren land, 100 years, and we will be a super power again.

Stop viewing secession through a 1860s construct.

Our bond via the USD and FICA is pretty strong. Dont see anyone trying to unravel that mess.

You can basically ignore the most intrusive federal laws if you really do the research and make the right sacrifices.

The future of increased self determination within the US could possibly look something like Hong Kong.
