Donald J Trump Is A Traitor, And He Should Be Treated As Such

[Mac1958]

Trump is just a deeply damaged man who, with the critical help of effective enablers, managed to fool millions into believing in him, no matter what.

He came along at a time when these people were full of rage, frustration and paranoia, and he knew how to play them.

The world has seen it before, and no doubt we'll see it again. Human nature, I guess.

 

[Flash]

The stupid uneducated Moon Bats think that Trump committed a crime by standing in the way of making the US a Socialist shithole.

 

[LeftofLeft]

What Donald J. Trump is doing is treachery to the American republic, and it should be treated as such.

As reported by the New York Times:

WASHINGTON — President Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election are unprecedented in American history and an even more audacious use of brute political force to gain the White House than when Congress gave Rutherford B. Hayes the presidency during Reconstruction.
Mr. Trump’s chances of succeeding are somewhere between remote and impossible, and a sign of his desperation after President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. won by nearly six million popular votes and counting, as well as a clear Electoral College margin.

This is really a no-brainer. We’re dealing with a traitor in the White House, nothing more, nothing less.

Every single member of his Cabinet that supports him is guilty of treachery. Every single Republican lawmaker that supports him is equally guilty. Every single pundit on Fox News or any other right-wing outlet that supports this coup attempt is, in fact, supporting a traitor.

As explained by historian Michael Beschloss, this moment is truly unprecedented in our history:

“This is a manufactured crisis. It is a president abusing his huge powers in order to stay in office after the voters clearly rejected him for re-election.”
He added: “This is what many of the founders dreaded.”

There is no other word for them. They are traitors to the nation--all of them. They are trying their damnedest to erase the rights we in this country were born with.

They should carry that with them for the rest of their lives, into their graves.

Report: Recession Over In June 2009

The longest recession the country has endured since World War II ended in June 2009, according to a group that dates the beginning and end of recessions.

Report: Recession Over In June 2009

The recession that started in December 2007 ended in June 2009, according to a group that dates the beginning and end of recessions. The downturn lasted 18 months, making it the longest since World War II, the National Bureau of Economic Research said.

This is why I don't get into this stuff -- my profession for more than 20 years -- with Trumpsters any more.

You're ignorant on the conditions that existed long after the recession was over. Conditions we felt as late as 2019, when the NY Fed had to pour $1.5 TRILLION into short term credit markets to keep Trump's economy afloat.

Your arrogant ignorance is boring. Think what you will, Trumpster.

says the enemy of America, after all, you thank my comment when I said you didn't give a fuck about America

What are you, some Spetznaz dude?

Your guy Trump ended the Open Skies Treaty and decided to get rid of the spy planes, which means Russia can easily amass troops along its borders.

And can you tell us what important patriotic work Flynn did when he met with officials in Russia? And why he was fired during Obama?

and that has what to do with Mac1958 not giving a fuck about America?

skews13 is too stupid to know what "treason" is..............



Treason is the only crime defined in the U.S. Constitution. According to Article III, Section 3:

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

Two Types of Treason
There are two ways to commit treason: levying war against the government, and providing aid or comfort to the enemy.

Levying War
Levying war isn’t limited to formally declaring war. It includes any forcible opposition to the execution of a public law. Such “forcible opposition” ordinarily requires actual use of force by multiple people with the common purpose of preventing some law from being enforced. Weapons aren’t always required; sheer numbers can be enough.

Merely conspiring to overthrow the government isn’t levying war—there must be an actual assemblage of people who are ready and intend to use force. (But see “Related Crimes,” below.) So, no person acting alone can be guilty of levying war.

Providing Aid or Comfort
Providing aid or comfort to the enemy covers a variety of actions, from providing financial assistance to harboring an enemy soldier. Any intentional act that furthers the enemy’s hostile designs or weakens the United States gives aid and comfort to, and “adheres to,” the enemy.

Sympathy alone. Sympathy for the enemy by itself doesn’t constitute aiding or comforting. Rather, the actor must take some kind of action to provide aid or comfort.

Time of war. Treason by aiding the enemy can’t be committed during peacetime; there must be an actual enemy for the traitor to aid. The requisite enemy designation typically requires a formal declaration of war.

Attempt. Someone can be convicted of treason even if the attempt to aid isn’t successful or the enemy’s goal isn’t achieved.

levying war against the government like what obama and the other departments in the government did against the Trump administration?

[MaryAnne11]

I don't think he's a traitor. He's just a badly damaged little man.

He's not the problem. A society that put him in the White House is.

The fact that we woke up and threw him out as soon as possible at least mitigates that mistake, to a point.

Which is why Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Rupert Murdoch should be hung right beside him on the same gallows platform, on national television.

Limbaugh is going to shuffle off this mortal coil soon, any way. Stage 4 cancer.

Mr. Trump’s chances of succeeding are somewhere between remote and impossible, and a sign of his desperation after President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. won by nearly six million popular votes and counting, as well as a clear Electoral College margin.

This is really a no-brainer. We’re dealing with a traitor in the White House, nothing more, nothing less.

Every single member of his Cabinet that supports him is guilty of treachery. Every single Republican lawmaker that supports him is equally guilty. Every single pundit on Fox News or any other right-wing outlet that supports this coup attempt is, in fact, supporting a traitor.

As explained by historian Michael Beschloss, this moment is truly unprecedented in our history:

“This is a manufactured crisis. It is a president abusing his huge powers in order to stay in office after the voters clearly rejected him for re-election.”
He added: “This is what many of the founders dreaded.”

There is no other word for them. They are traitors to the nation--all of them. They are trying their damnedest to erase the rights we in this country were born with.

They should carry that with them for the rest of their lives, into their graves.

skews13 is too stupid to know what "treason" is..............



Treason is the only crime defined in the U.S. Constitution. According to Article III, Section 3:

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

Two Types of Treason
There are two ways to commit treason: levying war against the government, and providing aid or comfort to the enemy.

Levying War
Levying war isn’t limited to formally declaring war. It includes any forcible opposition to the execution of a public law. Such “forcible opposition” ordinarily requires actual use of force by multiple people with the common purpose of preventing some law from being enforced. Weapons aren’t always required; sheer numbers can be enough.

Merely conspiring to overthrow the government isn’t levying war—there must be an actual assemblage of people who are ready and intend to use force. (But see “Related Crimes,” below.) So, no person acting alone can be guilty of levying war.

Providing Aid or Comfort
Providing aid or comfort to the enemy covers a variety of actions, from providing financial assistance to harboring an enemy soldier. Any intentional act that furthers the enemy’s hostile designs or weakens the United States gives aid and comfort to, and “adheres to,” the enemy.

Sympathy alone. Sympathy for the enemy by itself doesn’t constitute aiding or comforting. Rather, the actor must take some kind of action to provide aid or comfort.

Time of war. Treason by aiding the enemy can’t be committed during peacetime; there must be an actual enemy for the traitor to aid. The requisite enemy designation typically requires a formal declaration of war.

Attempt. Someone can be convicted of treason even if the attempt to aid isn’t successful or the enemy’s goal isn’t achieved.

levying war against the government like what obama and the other departments in the government did against the Trump administration?

That only happened in Right Wing fantasy not real life. Even the judiciary is learning how absolutely ignorant right wingers of how our federal form of Government works.
