> Do Americans even read or care about Constitution anymore?

Supreme court does not, so why should random Americans?

It is not like the high but malleable ideals in it mattered. Its only use is to be able to claim in abstract "we have these freedoms and protection" while the court system renders them void in practice.

The hope would be if more Americans were reading it, and understanding, then they would hold leaders more accountable and we wouldn't even get in this situation. The founding fathers kind of assumed an educated population, even if debating and disagreeing, would come to better conclusions. This current method of "lets cut education so the population doesn't know what is going on" is really a long term plan for the religious right to take over. But they are thinking in decades and generations.

The core issue with constitutional irrelevan e is highly educated suprem court justices put in by highly educated heretage foundation.

Issue is not lack of education among people, it is ideology they sign up to.
