The courts' ability to "strike down" anything, as in make laws and EOs null and void is not in the Constitution. The President and Congress has every bit as much right to declare an act, including an act of a judge, unConstitutional as the courts. The proper attitude was Jackson's, to wit, "John Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it."

By allowing the USSC (and ultimately this is about the USSC) to definitively and finally pas on a law/EO's Constitutionality, our nation has ultimately granted the judges total power in a dictatorship by small committee.
That can be nullified by a president who stands up to it.
