I'll explain why it would destroy them.

Texas supplies 75% of all of America's energy needs. He who controls that which you need to survive owns you.

If Texas cut off the oil spigot to the US for just a month, it would throw the US into the Stone ages within a month. They'd just start killing each other off, and you would just sit back and watch the chaos unfold.

There’s a ton of leftists in blue cities in TX. They would need to be dealt with

We freeze them out of their jobs.

That works. We need them to know they aren’t welcome here.

For too long, conservatives have been way too accepting of leftists. They should know that we don’t want them

The only way you can have true freedom is when all parties recognize each other's right to exist. Once that is gone, you no longer have freedom.

Cities collapse VERY quickly when the food and fuel trucks stop coming in. High population density of people who have no fucking idea how to survive when grocery stores have empty shelves. Problem would solve itself within a week.

Biden is going to achieve that with the Green New Deal. Enjoy reverting to pre-1960s living standards.
