What crosses the line into treason?

Let's be frank. All 17 of our intelligence agencies have concluded without a doubt that Russia meddled in the 2016 elections to help get Trump elected.

This is a fact that is NOT in dispute.  As much as the Foxtards would like argue that it is.

What's also not in dispute is our relationship with Russia. It's a hostile one. We're not military allies. With the exception of a few distinct things (such as the space station) we're on the opposite sides of the table.

Knowing our decades long history with Russia and knowing that they've been actively working to undermine our democracy, you have to ask the question.

"What is Trump going at here?"

He had an opportunity to stand up to a bully and say, "Cut your shit. We're hip to your games, we don't appreciate them and if you keep them up, they'll be consequences."

He had an opportunity to show Russia that our bonds with NATO were as strong as ever.

Instead he attacked our allies.

Who has this trip helped? Certainly not us. Certainly not our allies.

If Trumps allegiances were unclear, they're clear now. He's a Russian Shill. No other president in history has acted more disgracefully towards our allies or kowtowed to our enemies.

At what point do you have to ask where the line for Treason is drawn?
