Magento 2.3 payment won’t process Braintree or Paypal

I’m having difficulty processing payments with Braintree or PayPal redirect. When I go to process a payment in the checkout I’m getting a please use other form of payment error when submitting.

If I choose to use PayPal, the popup will show like it wants to redirect just for a second and then disappear (almost like it was blocked but it’s not and allowed).

I am getting an issue with amqp and the full error is:

main.INFO: Consumer "async.operations.all" skipped as required connection "amqp" is not configured. Unknown connection name amqp

I’m not sure if this is the error I should be working on to resolve but I’m stuck and unable to process any payments.

Thanks for all the help!
