I found this about honorary knighthoods...

Americans who have been awarded an honorary knighthood or damehood

For over a century, US citizens have received honorary British knighthoods and damehoods. For example, US Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H W Bush, and Dwight D Eisenhower all became Knights of the Grand Cross of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath. Eisenhower also became an honorary member of the Order of Merit in 1945 for running the Allied campaign during World War 2.

Perhaps the fact that it is 'honorary' makes it okay?

"There is a simple way to disqualify President Trump," Cobb said. "He clearly violated the 14th Amendment of the Constitution's Article III when he gave aid and comfort and three hours of inaction with regard to what was happening on the grounds of the Capitol. That clearly gave aid and comfort to the insurrectionists."

Presidents You Didn’t Know Were Knighted by Queen Elizabeth II (and Why Donald Trump Might Be Next in Line)

by Jess Bolluyt
Published on November 28, 2018

During her long reign over the United Kingdom, Queen Elizabeth II has met numerous presidents of the United States. She hasn’t yet met Donald Trump. And some people don’t think that she ever will, since he already canceled a trip to the United Kingdom (and doesn’t seem to be winning many fans among the British people). But Trump could still be in the running for a high honor bestowed by the monarch: an honorary knighthood.

In fact, several U.S. presidents have been knighted by Queen Elizabeth II. And if you look at one characteristic that those presidents had in common, it seems that Donald Trump could be next.

Meet Christina Bobb — former OAN presenter, 2020 election denier, and Trump's latest attorney to face legal trouble

Christina Bobb is at the forefront of Trump's legal battle against the DOJ over the Mar-a-Lago raid.

She previously worked at the far-right OAN network and the Marine Corps, and once ran for Congress.

Insider spoke to experts and colleagues, who described her as a staunch Trump acolyte.

On June 3, three FBI agents and a Justice Department official met with Donald Trump and his lawyers in the dining room of Mar-a-Lago, the Florida club he moved to after his presidency.

The officials were there to retrieve all remaining classified documents in Trump's possession as part of a subpoena issued a month earlier.

Christina Bobb, one of Trump's lawyers, signed a letter attesting that a "diligent search" had been conducted and all material that was in Mar-a-Lago at the time had been returned to the US government, per a court filing.

But two months later, on August 8, the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago, uncovering 20 boxes worth of new material, including 11 sets that were marked as classified.

The discovery raised serious doubts about Bobb's statement and prompted questions about who she is, how she got the top job with the former president, and what legal trouble she may now face.

Bobb did not respond to Insider's request for an interview.

KEY POINTS

• Former Trump White House lawyer Ty Cobb called ex-President Donald Trump a “deeply wounded narcissist.”
  In a new interview, Cobb said Trump acted in a “criminal” manner when he sought to have then-Vice President Mike Pence block Congress from certifying President Joe Biden’s 2020 election win.
  Cobb also said Trump’s conduct on Jan. 6, 2021, while a mob of his supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol, could lead to him being barred from seeking the presidency.

Former Trump White House lawyer Ty Cobb called ex-President Donald Trump a “deeply wounded narcissist” who acted in a “criminal” manner when he pushed then-Vice President Mike Pence to block Congress from certifying President Joe Biden’s 2020 election win.

In a new interview, Cobb also said Trump’s conduct on Jan. 6, 2021, while a mob of his supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol, could — at least theoretically — lead to him being barred from seeking the presidency.

“There is a simple way to disqualify President Trump,” Cobb told CBS News chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett in an interview on “The Takeout” podcast.

“He clearly violated the 14th Amendment of the Constitution’s Article III when he gave aid and comfort and three hours of inaction with regard to what was happening on the grounds of the Capitol,” he said.

“That clearly gave aid and comfort to the insurrectionists,” said Cobb, who added that a joint declaration by both chambers of Congress could on those grounds block Trump from being able to regain the White House.
