I personally think the idea of Texas seceding is a terrible idea. It is a reactionary idea with a lot of the same motivations as the original confederacy. While the rest of the country may become more liberal without Texas, having a Christian theocracy with oil wouldn’t go too well
First, it would have a massive brain drain to the rump United States as so many jobs would disappear by “going at it on its own”. Second, more taxes would be needed yet lawmakers who’d support that think they’ll end up in hell for raising taxes.
Mexico also wouldn’t be happy about it as well. They wouldn’t be comfortable with an unstable country with lots of guns on their border. It would likely be an easy target for the cartels, especially without the U.S. army.
Finally, secession was shown to be illegal in the War of the Rebellion, which was against a terrorist organization known as the confederate states of America. That organization, which illegally held territory wanted slavery to stay legal forever.
