scotus can rule something unconstitutional if they decide one section of the constitution violates another section. they could potentially support one and reject another.

for example if an abortion ban amendment would pass, a case would be brought to scotus, and they’d determine the amendment violates the imaginary right to it somewhere in the first amendment.

same with an amendment legalizing slavery.

depends on the makeup of the court.

Since when is slavery illegal? I mean, the entire productive segment of our society is forced into servitude and subjected to wage theft so that an entitled class may be artificially supported.

It can be done and all bases covered. We should not let the left get away with lying and stealing the rights of the people to have their say. THEY made it a federal issue and now we must answer. Otherwise you are looking at a situation as in North Carolina where the best judges resign rather than support homosexual marriage. It is a win win for them unless we stand up to it.
