I heard he was disqualified or not chosen by the South Carolina Democratic party. Any information?

Yup. He can't run in South Carolina because Democrats in the state pretty much thought he was a goof ball. I heard something like he got endorsements from Doritos and thats why he can run? So yeah, he can't run in SC and probably in other states either.

He wasn't a serious candidate and only running in South Carolina, as both a Democrat and Republican.
He then filed only as a Democrat because "the fee to run as a Republican" was too high. But the Democrats weren't having it, they dropped his name because they thought he was making a mockery of the system.
That was a few weeks ago and a good joke while it lasted, but it's over.

He was shut down by the Democrats on technicalities I did not know existed. I think they were worried he would pull away too many voters, they panicked and axed him.

A joke is only funny for so long. This one just wasn't funny anymore, so he gave it up.
