Didn’t that one end with Texas bankrupt, in political chaos from incompetent leadership, and about to lose a war with Mexico, begging the US to save them? Doesn’t it seem likely the same turn of events would happen?

Would your list include Ted Cruz and Greg Abbott?

As a resident of Durham, CT, don’t I frown when such aspersions are cast on the actions of our Native Son (and pere, Moses)?

If Texas did vote to secede, would Mexico try to take it back? Wouldn’t that be a major reversal?

If Texas did vote to secede, since we legally can’t, wouldn’t it likely drag in the courts for a while then be another footnote in the history of the decline of the GOP? But if somehow they managed it, once the massive economic collapse and political failure set in, might they be foolish enough to try to declare war on Mexico to try to go out with a bang rather than a whimper? Since it’s only ~10 counties representing the lunatics out of 250ish isn’t it likely to fail at the convention if it doesn’t go to a popular vote to fail there?

Anyone else start the day going to the funeral of a 97-year-old and end the day with a birthday party for an 88-year-old?

Wasn’t it wonderful to celebrate a life devoted to family and love? Wasn’t it strange to celebrate a life devoted to the antithesis of family and love?

Don’t I wish I was related to the man who was devoted to family and love, instead of the other one?

Wasn’t it cathartic to cry with the family built on love and support, who have taken me in and loved and supported me?

Why the hell didn’t I get a family like that?

If you’re waiting for a copy from Seattle library, won’t you have to wait until I’m finished with it?

Shouldn’t they have more than one copy?

Don’t they have two, apparently?
