Would this, finally, be considered treason?

[donkeypoofed]

If, as I suspect, Drumpf is the one who directed Pompeo to set up an arms deal, someone whistle-blowed and the IG learned of it and was commencing an investigation, the importance of this cannot be understated.

No one would have thought this of Pompeo 35 yes ago!. Such a promising young man. Such a bright future. Such honor &, courage. An arms deal with SA now? I can't think of Pompeo as a sellout, I think he was directed by Drumpf to do it.

They needed to keep it quiet and that sure stinks to me. Maybe some money on the side to keep Drumpf's struggling hotels & golf courses afloat? He can't exactly turn to Deutsche Bank this time can he? He has to make the interest payments on his high debt somehow, plus keep the hotels afloat.

IF this were all true, and I have a bad feeling, would this be considered treason by the masses? Finally?

1. Treason is narrowly defined in the US Constitution.

US Constitution, Article III, Section 3:
"Treason against the United States shall consist ONLY in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort."

4. Then I was correct in calling tRUMP, reTHUGS and cultists traitors in 2016 for taking sPUTIN's

money and following his directions...

2. Technically it's not treason. It's just another item to add to a long list

of impeachable offenses that will never be dealt with except by voting him out of office.

3. No.

Nothing he can do would result in removal.
