“typically swear an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

This oath of office is now typically regarded as a limerick.

Article 4, Section 4 of the Constitution says, “the United States shall guarantee to every State in the Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened), against domestic violence.”
