What is polititcal supremacy
The founders decided that checks and balances on three branches of government (executive, legislative and judicial) would assure that no one branch of government gained supremacy over another.
The supremacy clause gave the federal government the ability to override the states bill of rights.
what is the purpose of the supremacy claue in the constitution
Judicial review is essential for the establishment of judicial supremacy, as it empowers courts to interpret the Constitution and invalidate laws that contradict it. However, judicial supremacy can also emerge from a court's consistent exercise of this power, shaping the legal landscape and influencing other branches of government. While judicial review provides the mechanism, the extent of judicial supremacy ultimately depends on the judiciary's willingness to assert its authority and the political context surrounding its decisions. Therefore, while judicial review is necessary, it alone does not guarantee judicial supremacy.

Judicial review empowers courts to interpret and enforce the Constitution, ensuring that national laws align with constitutional principles. When state laws or actions conflict with federal laws, the judiciary can invalidate those state laws, thereby reinforcing the supremacy of national legislation. This process maintains a uniform legal framework across the country, preventing individual states from undermining federal authority. Ultimately, judicial review serves as a crucial mechanism for protecting the rule of law and the supremacy of the national government.
A judicial review allows the Supreme Court to annul any acts of the state that is deemed to be unconstitutional. This decision was made during the Marbury v. Madison case which stated that they have the right to review the acts of Congress to determine its constitutionality.
