biden should declare war on and immediately surrender to mexico, ceding the previously annexed territory when there isn't an appropriate indigenous group to return it to.
As much as I like the idea, and the spirit of this comment, I don't know if it's fair to make Mexico take responsibility for a state as back ass-wards as Texas.
We've spent the better part of 200 years arming a bunch of white settlers while letting them circle jerk themselves raw over mythical Texan exceptionalism and Evangelical Christianity.
Giving Texas back to Mexico, is like feeding a toddler a pound of sugar, giving it a knife, and dropping it off at daycare.
Also, the cartels are real shit.
Border towns are far more dangerous than 20 or 30 years ago.
Good friends of mine who grew up in El Paso, who have family on the Mexican side, avoid crossing over if they don't have to. Shit's gotten real.
The Mexican government is pretty much 3 cartels in a trench coat at this point.

yeah idk what to do about that, keeping it in
isn't going to get any better any time soon. I'd say white genocide, but that's not real.
It's got oil. They'd take it.
I'm pretty sure that organized crime in Mexico would roll over most of Texas in a week. And given how those groups have historically had to hide amongst civlians, they occasionally have to throw the local populations a few crumbs, which means that, if they get taken over by the cartels, Texans might for the first time have a government that does something good for them rather than just murdering them.
This got an actual mirthful lol out of me
