The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.
If and when the US government begins doing its job -- and "a Republican Form of Government" MEANS one chosen BY THE CITIZENS, which in turn REQUIRES honest elections -- then there won't be any REASON for States to withdraw from the Union.
American's DO NOT WANT Communism or other tyranny; they don't want poverty; they don't want high taxes (which they know are spent mostly in ways that harm rather than help); they don't want propaganda aimed at getting them to give up their culture or their nation, or at dividing us racially or by gender or in any other way. They don't want constant aggressive wars, or bureaucrats who force them to buy things they don't want and make it difficult or impossible to buy things they DO want. Americans don't want censorship of honest speech on important topics. We don't want thousands of criminals released from foreign jails being invited into our cities and given resources our OWN people are in dire need of.
With honest elections, we wouldn't HAVE any of those problems.
Without constant, industrial-level election fraud, none of us would even be thinking about secession.
You are right. I didn't move from WA state because I want to just abandon a country. I just know that Texas could easily become a country if need be. No one really want that, but there's a whole lot of problems beside the vote.
I understand, of course. I'm in a state where many want to join ANOTHER state that is (in many ways, not all) more free, and unless America as a whole gets healed, I'd support that move fully.
But it burns my ass that the Federal government has NEVER, at least in my lifetime, taken the slightest real interest in election integrity in any of the states, considering that insuring election integrity is something the feds are CLEARLY REQUIRED to do ("shall guarantee to every State"), since large-scale vote fraud by definition deprives the citizens of their ability to elect their chosen officials.
Instead, we get "elected" officials and their appointed bureaucrats chosen by the Cabal, by China and other nations, and by common criminals.
