He should read the Constitution. There is no process for revoking ratification of an amendment.

Prohibition was repealed, though, so the thing could be undone.

By passing a new amendment, the 21st, that repealed the existing 18th Amendment. But this guy is not proposing a new amendment to revoke the 17th, he's proposing to recind ratification of the 17th.
