> the Supreme Court has made decisions which many people think constitute an obvious, willful misinterpretation of the constitution

This is a good point, and one that I hadn't considered before my first reply.

However, we're talking about a single issue here - Congress' "say in how States operate their policing." As such, it's a lot harder to argue "willful misrepresentation" when none of the political persuasions or judicial philosophies that have dominated the court over six decades challenge it.
