Texas secession?

So, for weeks I've been hearing rumblings that the TX GOP wants to call it quits with the USA (e.g., https://www.rawstory.com/trump-secede/). Personally, I think it would be great. We wouldn't have to bail TX out with federal funds, we'd have a senate majority and a huge advantage in presidential elections...and Ted Cruz would be all theirs. I should say...I went to college in TX and worked in Houston for a couple of years. I have fond memories of the time I spent there, but at this point, I think if they want to go, let 'em go. Thoughts? (I realize this is largely hypothetical--I just want to know what my fellow DUers think.)
