Why aren't the pundits calling it what it is? TREASON and SEDITION.

SEDITION. Conduct which is directed against a government and which tends toward insurrection but does not amount to treason. Treasonous conduct consists of levying war against the United States or of adhering to its enemies, giving them aid and comfort.

What's it going to take before the people with the microphones start calling out tRump on his aiding russia, not just in helping them get a stronger hold in Ukrane, but also by his decisions to pull out of Syria the way he did, to let Russia AND Iran get a hold there. There are so many times he has given "aid and comfort" to the russians, it's hard to count.

LPC Noob's own post explains why calling what Trump is doing - or what Pelosi & Schiffty are doing - is not treason. Trump is fighting our international enemies, not aiding them. And as for sedition, Trump is the President of the US, part of the government; the Prog-moles in the WH who have been spying on Trump, OTOH ... .

Yes, I go with treason and sedition. I'd pretty much charge 80% of the Democrat Party with it myself.

Pretty much have to be in a state of active hostilities for either one to apply, and as far as 'Acting against the government,' the Chief Executive decides national policy, not the out-of-power party, so even if treason and sedition applied, it would be the Democrats who would be committing them.
