The prospect of a Joe Biden presidency was a deal breaker, one Republican state lawmaker in Mississippi appeared to say last week. In a since-deleted Twitter message, state Rep. Price Wallace wrote last Saturday that the Magnolia State should “succeed” from the union after the Democrat’s win over President Trump, according to reports. Wallace likely meant to write the state should “secede” from the U.S. when he was responding to a series of Twitter posts by his colleague, Republican state Rep. Robert Foster. MISSISSIPPI VOTERS REPLACE CONFEDERATE-THEMED FLAG WITH NEW DESIGN“I truly love the USA and Mississippi and would never support any idea of seceding from the union,” Wallace wrote. “This political fight will determine our country’s direction and our children’s freedom,” Foster wrote Wednesday.
