The reason I present this question is the secession movement in Oregon actually seems to be moving forward, at least within the state of Oregon. Most of the eastern counties want to join Idaho, so it wouldn't create a new state, they just want to join another state.
And of course California always has some whacky new state proposals, so I'm just curious what Texans think. A place like Lubbock doesn't have much in common with Austin.
Consider that more rural and conservative Texans are interspersed everywhere through out Texas even around the Austin area.

Austin hopes that one day it can be airlifted from Texas and relocated to California.
Just like most states, the big cities in Texas are islands of blue in a sea of red. Texas has a big sea.
There's no west/east Texas divide, or anything close to it. Just some blue dots against a red background, and that's how it'll remain.
No, Texas isn't going to split into multiple states.
Your assumption is correct. I live in California, which also sees quite a few State Split movements, that's why I asked the question in the original post.
There are large swaths of California that are anti-Blue.
Fun Fact, California had more Trump voters than Texas did.

I am guessing you picked Texas because of its size but to my knowledge there is no even remotely serious proposal to break up Texas. At least as far as I know.
Oregon has a problem because of all the wackos and loonies in the Portland area.
