    If the dems win, then Texas will have no protection other than armed resistance. Feds will have total control over your 1A and 2A rights.

    There's this thing call the Supreme Court.

    And it will take a Constitutional Convention to repeal 1A and 2A.

    That doesn't mean the respective states and fed authoritarians won't try to fuck with things.

    Idaho and Utah will cover Texas' western flank if pressed.

    I didn't say it would be isolated...I just said it would be more protected from the nutjobs than most of the rest of the country. They can pass national laws, but the Texas AG will tie them up in court for years and the local officials won't enforce the more crazy Federal decrees...

    I should add at least for a few years until more Joe Rogans move here and really f!ck things up locally...

    And Michigan is now doing the same...and allowing "anyone" to help "fill" out absentee ballots. The nutjob Left are running to each old folks home right now to start filling out ballots...

    JFC. I’m all for the states having control over certain things, but not this. It’s going to make the hanging chad drama and subsequent Supreme Court decision of 2000 look like a garden party.

    Either way, they can’t drag it out forever. The 20th Amendment has a hard deadline of door.ass.out:

    The terms of the President and Vice President shall end at noon on the 20th day of January, and the terms of Senators and Representatives at noon on the 3d day of January, of the years in which such terms would have ended if this article had not been ratified; and the terms of their successors shall then begin.

    Oh, and let’s not forget that pesky electoral college.
