We also have a bunch of military bases. We could almost actually do this.

So the movie Civil War although I doubt the help from Texas would come 😂

Honestly after over 10 years of this bullshit and us slowly drifting into the crazy dimension I wouldn't be surprised if Texas would actually switch sides and help CA for whatever reason. It wouldn't be the craziest thing that happened in the last couple of month.

I'd be shocked. Texas is more likely to go it alone against the rest of the country than to ally with any blue state. They are deeply red there: full of racists and the most hateful, arrogant "we were our own country once" people you can imagine.
