    How are conservatives not widely declared as traitors? A few decades ago even the slightest hint you might be working for the Russians was enough to derail your career. But now it seems they can openly squash the best chance to disarm Russia, at a ridiculously low price, without sending troops. Why is the bar for them so low with everything?

      Trump’s four years allowed the USA to be deeply compromised and they’ll probably never tell us the extent of how much.

        They’d be traitors by their own standards. They would complain and run constant news cycles on Obama cozying up to the Russias and how weak he looks when he interacted with Putin.

          Fascists don’t have standards, only whatever will get them power in the moment.

          OK but their standards aren’t the law. I’m asking specficially what would make any of their actions traitorous in regards to blocking money going to Ukraine.

            I think what was meant was not them being declared traitors according to law but being declared traitors publicly to move the public opinion.

                Good effort, but being a tratior and being treasonous are not synonymous.

                You can be a traitor without committing treason.

                Is it not traitorous to support a traitor?
