Bro bombing would be the least of the concerns lol
Vietnam didn't work because people native to the region had a much much greater understanding of the terrain, locals, dangers, etc.
The US government probably has a contingency plan to attack any given state should it fall under enemy control.
I swear y'all think way too highly of yourselves.
As if the US military doesn't have operational plans to deal with the state that has been talking about secession since the last time they did that.
To be fair, there is a major difference between jungle in Vietnam and forests in Texas. From my understanding there are some pretty rugged swamps and marshes in Texas, but the majority of it is just normal woodlands. That's putting aside that the vast majority of Texas overall is flatland that would be perfect for heavy vehicles and bombing.
Below is a map of the regions of Texas, pretty much the dark green, light green, and south east yellow sections would have any significant geographic impact on the military.
