Im also going to need your book report comparing and contrasting Aldrich Ames and whomever you think committed treason here by tomorrow as well.

I think I would rather hear your very specific definition because evidently the scenario I laid out for you doesn't fall under your narrow umbrella. People like you are what scare me the most about the future of this country; you're so concerned about your team winning that you can't even see the threat to democracy this whole thing presents.

Nothing will change as long as we do not care about integrity

Probably 80% of the population can’t critically evaluate themselves. Let alone their political party.

Au contraire, mon frere. I’ve been quite vocal about the constitutional crises presented by FISA abuse and any possible Trump conspiracy and foreknowledge with Russia (notice I didn’t say collusion).

I’m just tired of everyone misusing the word treason. It can be abuse of power or a crime of malfeasance in office, but it’s not treason.

Oh I think they have problems, but it’s not as simple or obvious as all that.

Overthrowing/framing a democratically elected president is treason. You're arguing the semantics of the how not the what. Espionage isn't the only form of treason.

Treason is limited to overt acts of war and giving aid and comfort to the enemy. This is precisely because people have used treason as a common political charge against opponents. So you’re correct in your limiting definition and also frustrated with something that has existed for as long as we’ve been a country.

Nothing will come?

People will be fired, political careers ruined, Democrat party in shambles.

That’s enough for me.

No, it’s not. It’s sedition or subversion if anything.

Democratic Party affiliation will not change by 1%. No one is paying attention.

I would agree, it really is all about votes. Either side will do anything and i mean anything to get or retain votes. They all really do not care about the law unless it gets them votes or is going to take votes from them.

I would call the coup sedition rather than treason but it's not that important on a message board.

People will have to. This will be too big even for the MSM to avoid it.
