    The Congressional angle I don’t understand.

    The 14th states that Congress can CLEAR a candidate who would otherwise be barred, but that still means he would be barred otherwise.

      It’s patently nonsensical. Not even Trump’s own appointees seem to take that one seriously.

        That’s what he’s telling Gorsuch right now, the disqualification exists now and can only be removed by Congress.
