Was wondering when I started to really worry about Trump so I looked for the first time I researched Treason. It wasn't Trump. It was the #47Traitors who signed the letter to Iran in March 2016. Here's a list of the GOP senators who signed the Iran letter wapo.st/18y7eDx?tid=ss…
I found a Yale Law Journal on treason's aid & comfort clause written during WWI. Makes a case for Trump's Russian propaganda amplification being treasonous.

"In simpler times-only a comparatively few years ago--when
daily printing of information and news was unknown, when
cables and wireless did not convey what is written, done and spoken to the
four quarters of the world on the instant, such cases as, in view of
modem conditions, might well arise today under the law of treason
were naturally unknown. But we are concerned with today,
not yesterday, and must expect modem acts to be adjudged in accord
with modem conditions. . . • A persisting series of speeches or
written or printed articles or editorials conveying, when taken in the
mass, information which might be reasonably deemed to be of assistance
to the military endeavors of the enemy, or consisting of statements
either true or false of existing or of claimed conditions or facts
the knowledge of or belief in truth of which, by encouraging would
tend to increase his resistance, or by discouraging would tend to
diminish the
effective of the United States, would be sufficient foundation
for a finding both of adherence to the enemy and of giving of
aid and comfort. In other words, the cumulative effect of such a
series of addresses or articles would, within the rules of law, be held
to afford suitable
foundation for a finding by a jury that the accused not only adhered to the enemy, but gave them aid and comfort." @realDonaldTrump's Russian troll botnet is treasonous and @TwitterGov willful blindness should be actionable. @FBIWFO @NewYorkStateAG
Applying this law to a jury instruction: everyone who knew of Russian cyber attack who did not report violated 18 U.S. Code § 2382 (misprison of treason). Took advantage of it? That's treason. @SenateGOP @HouseGOP time's up. Ones still hiding should not get deals. @FBIWFO
