Trump giving "aid and comfort to the Enemy".. #ArrestHimNow

[Zen Democrat]

6. Since there hasn't been a statutory enemy since December 1941, is treason defunct?

I can't believe that. And a district court is hardly the last word on the subject. You may have noticed that Keith Olbermann was quoting Liz Cheney.

In my opinion, regardless of a 77-yr old district court opinion, when the United States of America deploys troops overseas to counter a maniacal dictator with stated intentions of European conquest, aiding and abetting said maniac is potentially treasonous. The past is not prologue or precedent here.

The world changed after 1944. A little something called The Atomic Age and The Cold War precluded officially declared wars. Jane Fonda has been treated as a traitor for over 50 years by the Republicans, and she was just an actress with an opinion. Donald Trump, Mike Pompeo, the Crazy Congress Critters, the anti-American screeds on Fox propagated by Rupert Murdoch --this is different. Very different.

There could be a new legal definition this century. It's up to the courts.
