I wouldn't brush this off as just talking sh*t. It's a real concern. The difference between now and Rick Perry spouting off "secession this, secession that", is no one's spouting off about anything. Cruz' response is straight up, and what a lot of us around these parts are thinking.
Texas has a responsibility to the Union, but in the end, one bails from a sinking ship or goes down with it.

UPDATED 12:15 PM PT – Tuesday, November 9, 2021Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R) believes his state could secede if things get worse in the U.S.
Speaking at Texas A&M recently, the Republican said he loves America and isn’t ready to give up on it. However, he said he understands why some people would want to secede after months under Joe Biden’s administration.
Cruz said if enough people see the end of the U.S. as founded, they will join in the movement and Texas will take its oil and NASA for itself.
“We’re not there yet, and if there comes a point where it’s hopeless, then I think we take NASA, we take the military, we take the oil,” said Cruz.
“If the Democrats end the filibuster, if they fundamentally destroy the country, if they pack the Supreme Court, if they make D.C. a state, if they federalize elections and massively expand voter fraud, there may come a point where it’s pointless. We’re not there yet,” said the Texas Republican.
Cruz said Texas still has a responsibility to the U.S., especially in keeping American values in the face of a radical left.
