What if the US had lost the Mexican-American war from 1847?

The Southern rebellion was largely the outgrowth of the Mexican war. Nations, like individuals, are punished for their transgressions. We got our punishment in the most sanguinary and expensive war of modern times. - General U. S. Grant

One of the most unjust ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation. It was an instance of a republic following the bad example of European monarchies, in not considering justice in their desire to acquire additional territory. - General U. S. Grant

The only way America loses the war is if you go back decades before it started and somehow manage to get Mexico to unfuck its shit.

You're better off either preventing the war happening to begin with, or end it as soon as possible with little public support from American citizens. Somehow prevent the idea of Manifest Destiny from kicking off.

Not really, La nueva españa had sought for those territories since they got control of them and the american families that settled in texas were there just some decades before the independence.

The problem was a lack of a professional army that could battle for days. Santa Anna was a fucking genius.

would you really want a beaner controlled southwest? oh wait you already do. 150 years later and the beaners won the war by being the majority people. Only 50 more years until they ask for independence or demand a quebec like status in the USA.
