    It’s an incorrect ruling. States have always been the judges of legal qualification for office.

    Congress has it’s own method to disqualify someone: impeachment.

      I agree, but unfortunately the Supreme Court’s word is (literally) law. There is no avenue to contest that short of passing another amendment with more teeth than the 14th, or waiting for a less-biased court to re-evaluate the ruling.
