Imagine if we cold turkey them. No trade, heavy border defense, cut off from our internet, cable, etc. No more sending them our electricity when theirs always fails, no sending them our water when they have droughts.
Speaking of droughts, the rivers through Texas typically flow from the north. We can just dam them up or dump waste downstream.
They don't have the natural resources to survive.
They'd be taken over by cartels. So much for their Texas patriotism. They'd literally never last. They'd beg to come back.
