11. '"Most Americans" don't know their ass from a hole in the ground.'

True.

They also don’t know that Trump is immune from criminal prosecution, that impeachment is the only process available to remove Trump, thanks to the Trump court.

The immunity described in Trump does not only protect a President from criminal prosecution. The majority opinion also insulates a President from indictment and, according to a majority of five Justices, prevents a jury from considering "official act" evidence even when pursuing allegations of "unofficial" criminal wrongdoing. A prosecutor is therefore barred from using evidence of official acts in prosecuting unofficial acts—meaning that the Trump opinion's "official act" immunity may also make it more difficult for prosecutors to seek accountability for otherwise unprotected unofficial acts.’
