Even then, the court is not likely to kill the political process, and righteous anger can trigger an all Blue election at some point in the future. All Blue will equal a larger SCOTUS with a liberal tilt, and a reset on everything Trump, and any successors, have done to that time.
At that point, we might just as well agree to separate or start the Constitutional process over from the convention onward. The creaky system will be broken ... no fix will be possible. I doubt I live long enough to see it, but I think it's in the cards.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
