Someone will file a lawsuit against what the governor in California is doing and the people of California and depending on the court it will be upheld or not and if it is it will be appealed to the Supreme Court and guess what they’ll do.

I’m assuming this is something that could go to court and we certainly understand by now that this Supreme Court has no intention of abiding by the law or the Constitution. Yes they will rule that Texas can do it and California cannot. They will just make up an excuse.
