States leaving the Union won’t be so obvious. It will start with States that won’t enforce some Federal laws and slowly progress further. Only if and when the Supreme Court continues to ignore the Constitution will any major escalation happen. It again depends upon the Supreme Court finally getting its act together and upholding the plainly written Constitution (which is much in doubt these days)...
‘States leaving the Union wont be so obvious. It will start with States that wont enforce some Federal laws and slowly progress further.’
Exactly!
It has happened already - example, states refuse to observe the REAL ID act of 5 years ago and now DHS acknowledges that they couldnt enforce the federal law and quietly gives states yet another temporary deferment to some unspecified future suitable date.
After 17 years of states resisting federal laws on weed, the DOJ is now recognizing these efforts for what they are. Nullification.
Now 25 states refuse to establish healthcare exchange (obozocare)...and,
States nullify fed gun laws (Wyoming...)
State nullification, that is what it takes.
