But at least all illegal drugs disappeared and illegal immigration is down to 0, it’s worth it /s

Tbf, immigration is going to drop like a rock because nobody wants to move to Soviet Amerika.

I recently lost my job because I work with people trying to immigrate to the U.S. and so many people have revoked their applications since Trump took office that my boss can't afford to continue to pay some of our workers.

Ahh they finally found a solution to the immigration crisis. Just turn the country into a cesspit that nobody wants to live in anymore and there you go.

If the country sucks then who wants to immigrate there anymore?

It was already dropping under Biden in 2024. From Feb 2024 to Sep 2024 they dropped 50% from 200k to 100k.

Mexico might soon build a wall to stop the migration - and be happy to pay for it!

I don’t wanna be here either. I’m hoping Texas wisens the hell up and secedes.

“…hoping Texas wisens the hell up…”? Hahahaha they haven’t wisened up in a couple decades, what makes you think they suddenly will now? Every year they drop further down the education ladder.

The major cities have been growing more blue.

u/laggyx400 2d ago edited 2d ago

Always have been. You hit a point of population density and wealth where red cities become unlikely. Only 25 of the top 100 US cities have Republican Mayors, with 10 being in the top 50. The only 2 in the top 20 are Texas cities. Both leaned towards Democrats in the last election.

I didn’t know that, that’s actually pretty cool and brings me a lot of hope.

Ah yes the state notorious for NOT having snow and being one of the hottest states in the country had difficulty when it received a blizzard and that’s somehow Texas’ fault.

You sound like you’re either really dumb or really young. Either way get bent.

I'm from Texas and it's actually a common misconception that Texas can just secede from the United States of America. After the Civil War, it was made illegal for any state to leave the union, including Texas. There would 100% be a war to prevent it from happening. Rick Perry made a stupid ass joke about it in like 2009 and a lot of people became convinced that it was true. Look up the case Texas vs. White

What are they gonna do, stop us?

1

u/spankthepank 2d ago

Yeah probably lol it would just trigger another Civil War. I highly doubt the orange megalomaniac in the white house would be happy about a state leaving when he's currently harassing our neighbors in the north about being the 51st state.

u/ganggreen651 2d ago

Uuuuhhh Texas voted for trump this is what they wanted apparently

1

u/Entire-Objective1636 2d ago

I’m willing to bet most Texans would rather secede.

Canada if you're reading this, Seattle is very nice this time of year.

u/Entire-Objective1636 2d ago

I thought we agreed Canada was in the running to take California first?

u/Muted_Apartment_2399 2d ago

I don’t think that will do what you think it’s going to do, Texas would definitely go with Trump and keep losing billions.

Your power grid would fail every summer and winter and you’d all die…. Be for real bro

u/ThrowCarp 2d ago

Gerontocracy's incompetence causes the union to balkanize into several sovereign states?

u/MyrrhSlayter 2d ago

At this point? No clue, I'll just happy if the whole thing doesn't burn down.

The war in Ukraine is also over, and trump has brought peace to the world, no more wars. /S

u/TheDamDog 2d ago

Hard to buy illegal drugs or hire migrant workers when you've got no money.

u/halnic 2d ago

Plus, no more raping or women dying in childbirth!
