No, but it will prevent the left from totally stacking the Supreme Court, thus rendering the Constitution meaningless. It will also help to prevent the left from using executive orders to circumvent the checks and balances put into place by the Constitution.

“if” the politicians themselves refuse to be bound by the Constitution, what use is the Supreme Court? Does one suppose a string of pro Constitutionalist rulings from the SCOTUS in perpuitity?

We’ve had a Income Tax since 1916, no matter the politician or court in power, we’ve had direct control of State affairs since the 50’s, no matter the court or politician in power.

It already is meaningless (to the 3 branches) and it only prevents the left from circumventing checks and balances while the right is in office and does it. Sorry, the GOP is every bit as guilty (flame away but I'm still right).
