The Atlantic: The Constitution prohibits Trump from ever being President again


In the amendment’s Section 3, automatically excludes from future office and position of power in the United States government any person who has taken an oath to support and defend our Constitution.


...

Well that doesn't make sense. Every american school child has to re-take the oath every school day, as if they live in some dictatorship where the supreme leader is a flag rather than a high ranking military officer, and from your quote every american would be excluded from office.

I went to the linked article and the last half of the sentence had been cut off from your post.

I discovered the article actually said:

This protection, embodied in the amendment’s often-overlooked Section 3, automatically excludes from future office and position of power in the United States government—and also from any equivalent office and position of power in the sovereign states and their subdivisions—any person who has taken an oath to support and defend our Constitution and thereafter rebels against that sacred charter, either through overt insurrection or by giving aid or comfort to the Constitution’s enemies.
