i am referring only to the border areas that we all know are deep blue and populated from top to bottom by mexicans, like brownsville. in 2014 ukraine had a stronger military than that yet could not react to russia's annexation of crimea or intervention of donbass because it was disorganized and unprepared. there is no question mexico would easily sweep the border if texas were to secede. however, it would not go as far as houston or deep into texas.
