Ever since the election the Republican party has gone insane.

That doesn't mean you can go straight to the supreme court
If SCOTUS is the original curt of jurisdiction, that is EXACTLY what Article III is saying. Sorry.

That is how the law works. 
Yeah for individual to individual cases. But not State to State. I am not a State. Per Article III, jurisdiction of justice is different.

If that was so, the Court would be vulnerable to denial-of-service attacks 
Thems the breaks when SCOTUS is declared exclusive original jurisdiction. And Alito cited numerous cases in which his claim of original jurisdiction sgould have been upheld. What? You don't believe SCOTUS ever makes mistakes? Hah! 200 times in its history since 1790. Now, 201.

you are misunderstanding. That means that they are the court of last resort. If you have exhausted other options, you can appeal to the supreme court. It does not mean you can go there 1st. 

Yeah for individual to individual cases. But not State to State. I am not a State. Per Article III, jurisdiction of justice is different. 
The supreme court literally just told you that is wrong. A state still needs standing to sue. That is exactly what they just ruled. Even a state needs standing to sue a person or a state.
