QOTD -- Traitor Trump

 

"... I try not to be hyperbolic, that is, to undermine my assertions with language that is overly exaggerated or bombastic.

But that caution needs to end now. Because Donald Trump is a traitor.

And he’s not simply a traitor in the loose sense of someone who commits an act of betrayal that makes clear they are not only not on your side but actively working to undermine your side. ('You traitor,' said the kid to his best friend after he started hanging out with the class bully.) Donald Trump is a traitor in the very particular sense laid out in the U.S. Constitution written and agreed to in 1787.

This can be found in the clause pertaining to treason, Article III, Section 3, as follows: 'Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.'”... -- writer Steven Bechloss, who goes on to demonstrate why "Donald Trump Is A Traitor," in his "America, America" Substack.  The treasonous deal to sell out our erstwhile ally Ukraine to the despotic Russian war criminal Putin was the precipitating event Bechloss cites in making his case (we said he was a traitor years and years ago because of his prior water-carrying for Putin that ran diametrically opposite to America's national interests, but macht nichts).  Good read and oh so true.
