“The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority”

“This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land;”

The judicial power extends to all cases arising under the Constitution, which includes the requirements specified in Article II. There is nothing specifying Article II requirements, or any other matter of law, are to be adjudicated by the Legislative Branch.

Don’t be ridiculous.

You’re not reading it correctly and misunderstanding the thought process. Probably by design as your reasoning has been a tortured.

SCOTUS does not rule on the constitutionality of enumerations in the constitution. It’s dual redundant. The Constitution instantiates SCOTUS.

SCOTUS reviews legistlated laws and laws *arising* from the Constitution. So stop telling us that SCOTUS rules on Constitutional Enumerations ... it doesn’t. IT rules on laws enacted and ensures they conform to the Constitution.
