    There is no way in hell a state would be allowed to secede as long as the federal government stands. Even ignoring the economic and geopolitical consequences, that precedent cannot be allowed to be set if the US is to remain a functioning nation.

      Also, no Republican has won the Presidency without winning Florida since Calvin Coolidge did a hundred years ago.

      So the GOP won’t be allowing Florida to secede so long as the Electoral College exists.

      You’re assuming they’ll do it alone and not as part of a coalition that controls large swaths of the American interior. A federation doesn’t mean shit if half the parties involved walk out.

        They don’t control the military or any of the 3 letter agencies, are you saying there’s a chance they’ll succeed?

          That’s what OP is saying, and OP is wrong.
