useful idiot brownshirts like cruz support the populist narrative as loudly as they can because they literally have no other cards to play on the national stage.

*actual separatists* proceed to foist them on their own petards by portraying them as effeminate intellectual rino weaklings who only cite populist insurrection as a way to accrue more power, which of course is the truth, and then proceed to run against them and win, handily.

texas separatists legally vote to secede.

*russia immediately starts providing them material support eg advanced weapons systems through mexican tunnels because why wouldnt they*

the literal rest of the country basically says 'ok yeah on second thought, populist right wing strong-man extremism isnt maybe where we want this to go' but its a little late.

the rest is pretty grim but the good news is that when the dust settles, PFA is given to femboy crypto twitter as reparations and president oprah casts the entire US in tyler perry's next movie as a form of universal basic income.
