They have already shown that when attacking Californias car pollution standards. However in the Supreme Court I suspect they don’t win these because both Kavanaugh and Gorsuch appear to have a rather non partisan rulings they just are very much textualists so I’d suspect any anti states rights stuff gets shot down.

For example Texas suing the other states during the election only Thomas and Alito wanted to hear the case.
