If Hillary gets elected, Texan Trumpers will stomp their boots and leave

___________________________________________________________

Prep the Alamo and start planning that border wall with Oklahoma. Because 3 out of 5 Trump supporters in Texas would rather quit than deal with President Hillary Clinton.


According to poll results from Public Policy Polling released Tuesday, three out of five Texans who support Donald Trump said they would support seceding from America if Hillary Clinton becomes president.

Of course, 3 out of 5 Trump supporters in Texas probably support seceding if someone serves them green salsa. Or there’s a “y” in the day.


… when faced with the possibility of a President Hillary Clinton, a majority of Texans said they'd rather leave.

Uhhh. Hmm. That’s not quite what the poll results say. In fact, that’s simply wrong. PPP determined that, if Hillary was elected, a majority of Trump supporters wanted to cut and run. But that number is only 40 percent of Texans. Because the really big news from the poll is this:

The really big question is Trump! Can he ride a horse like Putin and lead the Texans across the Rio Grand? This is so exciting!

Thanks for the update She!!

Just as long as we take all of our military with us, and we'll take 100% of the oil in exchange for not letting countries invade them. They can take care of their own borders though.

I live in Texas. I have heard this crap a long time. Almost all Texans do not want to leave Texas and would not leave the U.S. This part is hype put out by those who don't know Texas. We do have some idiots who say this every so often. A friend of mine has brought this up a few times, then regretted saying it afterward. Most are truly ill informed. They don't even think about the facts that most everything they rail against they would have to rebuild from scratch. We don't have a mint nor a monetary system. We don't have a visa, passports, and walls all the way around or state. All would have to be put in place. We don't have any form of what would be considered National security. What do they think would happen to the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, Border Patrol, CIA, FBI, Postal service, etc? All of those are National entities. Along with all weapons. They would have to be replaced. Those like Gov. Good hair (Rick Perry) have no clue when they say secede. And just prove their stupidity.

It's fine to me if they want to move to another country, but don't think for one minute they would drag Texas along with them.

Texas has a huge heart. A heart of Gold.

You gave us Molly Ivins and Ann Richards. Two strong woman. You shared them with us.

Thank you.

I am willing to let them go. In fact it might be time to petition the Whitehouse to look into this. It just isn't working out, it's them not us.

north of the Rio Grande. It was always a contested area with Mexico. They can pay for their own damn wall. They can have the area from Del Rio to Corpus Christi and south to Brownsville.
